Hi all,

I created an ansible role for setting up ovirt-engine development environment. If you are not familiar with ansible, it's a tool for getting a machine into a specific 'state'. A role is a 'type' of machine, like 'db server' or 'web server' or 'dev rig.' Roles are 'applied' to machines. So you can apply the ovirt-engine-devel role to setup a working development environment instantly. It works over ssh or locally.

You can see it in action here: https://imgur.com/a/FwEkmy5?

Known issues:

 - not tested on fc28 yet

 - not tested on EL yet

 - idempotency needs fixing when code edited

Improvements

 - gerrit setup

 - changing database name (multiple engine environments, etc.)

code:

Feedback welcome, and if you find it interesting, I'd love assistance :)
