This repository provides the foundation for working with the F5 Modules for Ansible. The architecture of the modules makes inherent use of the BIG-IP REST APIs as well as the tmsh API where required.
This repository is an incubator for Ansible modules. The modules in this repository may be broken due to experimentation or refactoring.
The F5 Modules for Ansible are freely provided to the open source community for automating BIG-IP device configurations.
If you want to download the stable modules, please install latest collection release found on galaxy: F5 Ansible Modules Collection.
We offer a daily build of our most recent collection here. Please use this Collection to test the most recent Ansible module updates between releases.
ansible-galaxy collection install <collection name> -p ./collections
e.g.
ansible-galaxy collection install f5networks-f5_modules-devel.tar.gz -p ./collectionsNote
"-p" is the location in which the collection will be installed. This location should be defined in the path for
ansible to search for collections. An example of this would be adding collections_paths = ./collections
to your ansible.cfg
F5 supports the F5 modules delivered in Red Hat Ansible distributions. Please refer to the F5 Ansible Support Policy for details.
We encourage you to use our Slack channel for discussion and assistance on F5 Ansible Modules (click the ansible channel).

What types of modules do you want created? If you have a use case and can sufficiently describe the behavior you want to see, open an issue and we will hammer out the details.
If you've got the time, consider sending an email that introduces yourself and what you do. We love hearing about how you're using the F5 Modules for Ansible.
