Inbuilt commands

When we installed Ansible, there were several different commands installed. These were:

  • ansible
  • ansible-config
  • ansible-console
  • ansible-doc
  • ansible-inventory
  • ansible-vault

We will be covering a few of the commands, such as ansible-galaxy, ansible-playbook, and ansible-pull, in later chapters, so I will not go into any detail about those commands in this chapter. Let's make a start at the top of the list with a command we have already used.
