Python Ops: Jinja + Ansible

Tired of redoing the same setup steps and hand-editing config files every time you start a new project or switch machines? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how Jinja templates and Ansible playbooks can turn those “one-off” chores into a repeatable, testable workflow, so you can spend more time writing Python and less time fiddling with environment setup.

In this tutorial, you'll get hands on with the Jinja templating language for creating programmatically creating files from templates, and then leverage that to repeatably automate systems configuration with the Ansible automation framework. Learn how to use these tools, when they're the right choice (and when to make other choices!), as well as how to test your process. Bring your laptop, ideally with Python and Docker installed and follow along!
