# ansible-aci
The ansible-aci project provides an Ansible collection for managing and automating your Cisco ACI environment. It consists of a set of modules and roles for performing tasks related to ACI.
This collection has been tested and supports ACI 3.2+.
Modules supporting new features introduced in ACI API in specific ACI versions might not be supported in earlier ACI releases.
*Note: This collection is not compatible with versions of Ansible before v2.8.*
## Requirements
Ansible v2.9 or newer
## Install
Ansible must be installed
```
sudo pip install ansible
```
Install the collection
```
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.aci
```
## Use
Once the collection is installed, you can use it in a playbook by specifying the full namespace path to the module, plugin and/or role.
```
- hosts: aci
gather_facts: no
tasks:
- name: Add a new EPG
cisco.aci.aci_epg:
hostname: apic
username: admin
password: SomeSecretPassword
tenant: production
ap: intranet
epg: web_epg
description: Web Intranet EPG
bd: prod_bd
delegate_to: localhost
```
## Update
Getting the latest/nightly collection build
### First Approach
Clone the ansible-aci repository.
```
git clone https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/ansible-aci.git
```
Go to the ansible-aci directory
```
cd ansible-aci
```
Pull the latest master on your aci
```
git pull origin master
```
Build and Install a collection from source
```
ansible-galaxy collection build --force
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco-aci-* --force
```
### Second Approach
Go to: https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/ansible-aci/actions
Select the latest CI build
Under Artifacts download collection and unzip it using Terminal or Console.
*Note: The collection file is a zip file containing a tar.gz file. We recommend using CLI because some GUI-based unarchiver might unarchive both nested archives in one go.*
Install the unarchived tar.gz file
```
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco-aci-1.0.0.tar.gz —-force
```
