Ansible documentation search function

[Stefan Klatt]

Hi,

does anybody know where search function on the ansible doc homepage is?
Probably I'm blind, but I doesn't find this function.

Your not blind, I also miss this feature.
That's why I build my one copy of the documentation.
Another way is to use site:docs.ansible.com on a search engine.

There is search built into the docs page.

Go to http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/index.html

In the bottom right hand corner of your browser there should be a black box that says "Search this site"

Clicking that box will produce a javascript modal with a search box and search results.

Thanks Matt, I don't see it, but I now why now. I use the add-on
NoScript in Firefox, and have it to disable all 3rd party javascript.

Enabled the javascript and tested the search, but I like the built in
Sphinx search more, so I'll keep building my own documentation.

For Mac users there is the great dash tool for offline reading:
https://kapeli.com/dash

For Linux users there is Zeal, which is a reimplementation that uses the dash
docsets:
http://zealdocs.org/

Dash and Zeal download the docsets for offline usage to your local computer.
Dash even can work with multiple versions of a docset. Sadly Zeal isn't as
sophisticated as Dash but still a very usefull tool.

You also have `ansible-doc` which will give you module documentation w/o the need to download anything.
