[Health-dev] Using Ansible for future GNU Health installation

[Gerald Wiese]

Hello :)
After the GHCon Luis & me had a talk about using Ansible as future 
installation strategy. There is already a mercurial repo 
"health-ansible" where I will push for HMIS 4.1 testing / 4.2 release.
Our idea is to have the current vanilla installation & Ansible in 
parallel for 4.2 and if everything works well move to Ansible as default 
(operating system independent) way for 4.4 or 5.0.
You can use it to install GNU Health HMIS using the PyPI package 
"gnuhealth-all-modules" and put uWSGI & Nginx in front. Currently 
Debian, Ubuntu & openSUSE Leap are supported. Adding more libre 
operating systems will not be complicated, Luis already planned adding 
FreeBSD.
If you want to join reflecting design decisions, testing, developing, 
documenting, etc. - please hit me up!
As soon as there is an initial state to test based on 4.2 release 
candidate I will let you know.
Best
Gerald
