Ansible cannot find nailgun from foreman-ansible-modules

Development

Hey,

I am trying out foreman-ansible-modules and I am also Ansible newbie. I installed “nailgun” via pip command on my Fedora 29:

pip install --user nailgun

But Ansible is unable to find it:

[lzap@box foreman-ansible-modules]$ ansible-playbook -i localhost -vvv test.yaml

What is wrong? Is the --user option causing this? How do I tell Ansible to load this library from my user folder?

pip installs the library for Python 2. so you need to use pip3.

Oooh I havent realized Fedora is on P3 already, I tried pip2 and it did not work out :slight_smile: Thanks.
