The debops command¶

The debops command provides multiple sub-commands, some of which are split into sections.

debops project: This section includes commands used to create and maintain the "project directories" which contain one or multiple Ansible inventories, PKI infrastructure, GPG keyring, and other resources used in a particular environment.
debops run: This command can be used to execute Ansible playbooks against a given environment. The playbooks used can come either from the DebOps Python package (included by default), from an Ansible Collection, or from the ansible/playbooks/ directory in a given project. You can also specify all ansible-playbook arguments to affect the Ansible execution;
debops check: This command is the same as the debops run command above, but automatically adds the --diff and --check ansible-playbook options to ensure that the playbooks are executed in a check mode;
debops config: This command allows the user to inspect and manipulate the DebOps configuration options in various formats;

You can find more information about these subcommands in the DebOps documentation, debops-* manual pages or by running them with the --help option.

Options¶

-h, --help: Display the help and usage information
