Collection of integrated Ansible roles used to run LAN events. This repository consists of roles that are purpose-built, lean and as easy as possible to understand and modify. The roles are built to simplify and accelerate, not to obscure.

It is primarily used in temporary environments, so great care is taken to avoid specific startup sequence dependencies between systems. The whole stack needs to come up automatically after a power cut or a physical move.

It was created for a Debian-based OS by the organizers of Frag-o-Matic and ZanziLan. Feel free to get in touch through any of the advertised contact details or come grab a beer at one of our events!

The 0.1.x track will suffer breaking changes and possibly history re-writes. Patch notes will always be provided.

This project was only recently published on GitHub and was previously maintained privately. There is no documentation, and a scratch setup will be very frustrating and time-consuming without a working example. Please bear with us as we work out these aspects.

Feel free to hack on the code, log issues and send PRs in the meantime!
