Automate Ansible Playbook Linting with GitHub Actions

In this video, Automate Ansible Playbook Linting with GitHub Actions, we take a deep dive into integrating Ansible Lint into your GitHub Actions workflow to automate linting for Ansible playbooks. Whether you're working on a CI/CD pipeline or striving to maintain best practices in your DevOps automation, this tutorial will guide you through every step.
We start by setting up a self-hosted runner, ensuring you have full control over your environment. From there, we configure the workflow to trigger on push and pull request events, ensuring every code change is validated automatically. You'll learn how to:
Segregate YAML files from the changed files in commits.
Exclude unnecessary files or directories from linting.
Use Ansible Lint to enforce best practices for playbooks.
Log meaningful outputs and handle scenarios with no YAML files.
This hands-on tutorial is perfect for DevOps engineers and developers looking to streamline their playbook validation process with GitHub workflows.
Stay tuned until the end for a sneak peek into the next video: Automate Python Security Scanning with Pylint and Bandit, where we'll integrate Bandit to detect security vulnerabilities in Python code.
