Hunspell

Overview

This README accompanies the Hunspell Playbook, located within the computer-playbook repository. The playbook is focused on installing Hunspell, a widely-used spell checker, along with various language packages to enhance its functionality.

Playbook Contents

The main.yml file in the hunspell role includes two primary tasks:

  1. Install Hunspell: Utilizes the community.general.pacman module to ensure that the hunspell package is installed on the system.

  2. Install Hunspell Language Packages: Again using the community.general.pacman module, this task installs multiple Hunspell language packages. The specific languages to be installed are determined by the {{hunspell_languages}} variable, which should be defined as a list of language codes.

Purpose and Usage

This playbook is tailored for users who need a powerful and flexible spell-checking tool on their systems. Hunspell is particularly popular among writers, editors, and developers who work with text in various languages. By automating the installation of Hunspell and its language-specific packages, this playbook simplifies the setup process, allowing users to quickly get up and running with an advanced spell-checking tool.

Prerequisites

  • Ansible: This playbook requires Ansible to be installed on your system.
  • Arch Linux or Similar: Given the use of the pacman package manager, this playbook is designed for systems based on Arch Linux or similar distributions.

How to Run the Playbook

To utilize this playbook:

  1. Ensure you have cloned the computer-playbook repository.
  2. Navigate to the roles/hunspell directory within the repository.
  3. Execute the playbook using Ansible, ensuring you provide a list of language codes to the {{hunspell_languages}} variable.

Customization

Users are encouraged to customize the {{hunspell_languages}} variable based on their specific language requirements. This variable accepts a list of language codes (e.g., 'en_US', 'de_DE').

For any support requests, suggestions, or contributions, please open an issue or a pull request in the computer-playbook repository. Contributions, especially those that enhance the playbook's functionality or extend its language support, are highly welcomed.
