NAME

ansible-lint - lint tool for Ansible playbooks

SYNOPSIS

ansible-lint [-M module_path] [-l] [-s] [module...]

DESCRIPTION

ansible-lint checks Ansible playbooks for practices and behaviour that could potentially be improved.

OPTIONS

--version:

show program’s version number and exit

-M DIRECTORY, --module-path=DIRECTORY

the DIRECTORY search path to load modules from. The default is /usr/share/ansible. This can also be set with the ANSIBLE_LIBRARY environment variable.

-s, --snippet=

Produce a snippet which can be copied into a playbook for modification, like a kind of task template.

-l, --list=

Produce a terse listing of modules and a short description of each.

-L

list all the rules

-q

quieter, although not silent output

-p

parseable output in the format of pep8

-r RULESDIR

specify one or more rules directories using one or more -r arguments. Any -r flags override the default rules in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ansiblelint/rules, unless -R is also used.

-R

Use default rules in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ansiblelint/rules in addition to any extra rules directories specified with -r. There is no need to specify this if no -r flags are used

-t TAGS

only check rules whose id/tags match these values

-T

list all the tags

-v

Increase verbosity level

-x SKIP_LIST

only check rules whose id/tags do not match these values

--nocolor

disable colored output

--force-color

Try force colored output (relying on ansible’s code)
