Using Ansible
141+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
142+
143+
There is a `ready-to-use Ansible role
144+
<https://galaxy.ansible.com/idiv-biodiversity/lmod/>` that allows you to
145+
install Lmod conveniently from Ansible. The role was written with installation
146+
on HPC clusters in mind, i.e. it is possible to install Lmod into a global,
147+
networked file system share on only a single host, while all other hosts
148+
install just the Lmod dependencies and the shell configuration files.
149+
Nevertheless, it is of course possible to install Lmod with this role on a
150+
single server. Also, the role supports the transition to Lmod as described in
151+
:ref:`transition-to-lmod`.
152+
153+
You can find the complete role documentation `here
154+
<https://github.com/idiv-biodiversity/ansible-role-lmod#ansible-role-lmod>`.
