Ansible 2.0 support, DebOps integration

[ypid]

More might be added to my devel branch in the future to further improve compatibility with the DebOps project.

Check for testing before this has been merged: https://github.com/ypid/ansigenome

Hi @ypid I recently setup autodoc with ansigenome in my new org, and ran into the 2.0 support issue. Given that ansible is now 2.6.3 is ansigenome not being actively maintained.

In case you do not have time to work on this, I'd like to take this up. Can you mentor me on this?

[ypid]

Hey, currently I can not mentor you. Just start working on it, fork it and we will see.

Hi,

So the current situation is I haven't used Ansigenome in quite some time.

For the longest time it remained idle while the DebOps project used it and occasionally certain features that helped the DebOps project were merged in, but right now there's nothing really guiding it.

I'm open to merging PRs that help being Ansigenome up to date, but we should tackle them as individual bite sized PRs.

Thanks @nickjj I'll start working on a fork. As it stands currently, there is no other document generation tool for ansible out there that can generate doc from metadata.

[Hashfyre]

For now I've written a simple bash script to combine the two yamls:

• meta/ansigenome.yml
• meta/main.yml

code: https://gist.github.com/Hashfyre/e0bff3052262d6bed0cd76dfdb593d7e

Hope to plug the same logic back in the repo, hope I'm on the right track here. A combination of the two dicts to generate the doc should work.
