Ansible content manager
Project description
Mazer
Ansible content manager
A new command-line tool for managing Ansible content.
Expect breaking changes!
Mazer is experimental, and currently only available for tech-preview. Use with lots of caution! It is not intended for use in production environments, nor is it currently intended to replace the ansible-galaxy command-line tool.
If you’re installing Ansible content in a production environment, or need assistance with Ansible, please visit the Ansible Project, or the Ansible docs site.
Proposed Features
Support repositories containing multiple roles. In other words, allow for multiple roles all in one repository.
Examples
Installing roles
To install geerlingguy.nginx via galaxy:
$ mazer install geerlingguy.nginx
See mazer github repo for more examples.

Origin of “Mazer”
The name Mazer comes from a character from Ender’s Game, Mazer Rackham, that Wikipedia describes as “the half-Māori captain who singlehandedly stopped the Second Invasion by realizing that the Buggers are a hive mind. Due to his inability to pass on his knowledge, he was forced to spend fifty years at relativistic speeds (eight years to Rackham) so that he could train the next commander — Ender Wiggin.”
A mazer is also a hardwood drinking vessel.
