Ansible Playbook development

Risu does support execution of ansible playbooks as long as:

• ansible-playbook is installed and available in path

Playbooks can either:

• Include RISU_ROOT environment variable usage so they are executed in snapshoot mode.
• or not have it, so they will be executed only in Live mode.
• for playbooks that are valid for both Live and non Live, a comment with RISU_HYBRID should be in the lines, so Risu does flag it for both live and non live execution.

The idea behind this approach is that unmodified dropped-in the folder and risu will pick them up for Live execution.

If a script has to be customized, it will contain the RISU_ROOT variable, and they will be used for snapshoot mode.
