Ansible Role: bee

This repository contains sample code for automating bee installation and management using Ansible.

Ansible is a radically simple IT automation engine that automates cloud provisioning, configuration management, application deployment, intra-service orchestration, and many other IT needs. bee is a Swarm client implemented in Go. It’s the basic building block for the Swarm network: a private; decentralized; and self-sustaining network for permissionless publishing and access to your (application) data.

Installation

Ansible Galaxy

Use ansible-galaxy install ethersphere.bee to install the latest stable release of the role on your system. Alternatively, if you have already installed the role, use ansible-galaxy install -f ethersphere.bee to update the role to the latest release.

Git

Use git clone https://github.com/ethersphere/ansible-role-bee.git to pull the latest edge commit of the role from GitHub.
