+# sudoers
+
+Manage sudoers configuration by creating files in `/etc/sudoers.d/`.
+
+## Role Variables
+
+  - `sudoers_groups`: Required list. A list of dictionaries defining sudo group configurations. Each dictionary should contain:
+  - `group`: Required string. The group name to grant sudo privileges to.
+  - `commands`: Required string. The sudo commands specification (e.g., "ALL=(ALL) ALL").
+  - `state`: Optional string. Either "present" (default) or "absent" to remove the configuration.
+
+## Features
+
+  - Creates individual sudoers files for each group in `/etc/sudoers.d/`
+  - Validates sudoers syntax using `visudo -cf` before applying
+  - Sanitizes group names by replacing spaces and slashes with underscores for filename safety
+  - Supports removing sudoers configurations by setting `state: absent`
+  - Sets proper permissions (0440) and ownership (root:root) on sudoers files
+
+## Dependencies
+
+None.
+
+## Example Playbook
+
+```yaml
+- hosts: servers
+  become: yes
+  roles:
+    - role: sudoers
+      vars:
+        sudoers_groups:
+          - group: SITE_Admins
+            commands: "ALL=(ALL) ALL"
+          - group: SITE_Users
+            commands: "ALL=(ALL) ALL"
+          - group: developers
+            commands: "ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl restart myapp"
+          - group: old_group
+            state: absent
+```
+
+## Example Variables
+
+```yaml
+# Merge your existing groups like this:
+sudoers_groups: "{{ sudo_groups + management_sudo_groups }}"
+
+# Where you have:
+sudo_groups:
+  - group: SITE_Users
+    commands: "ALL=(ALL) ALL"
+
+management_sudo_groups:
+  - group: SITE_Admins
+    commands: "ALL=(ALL) ALL"
+```
