i want to work on this issue can you give any idea what should be the content of installation guide This is only for ubuntu?

[rehrumesh]

@sonuagarwal1008 Great. No, We need instructions for Ubuntu, CentOS, Fedora, CoreOS and Arch as they are the widely used OSes (Linux based). Also We need guides for Windows and MacOS. For a start, you can start working for Ubuntu.

I have updated the required platforms

[sonuagarwal1008]

can we use configuration management like ANSIBLE

I am doing this issue of Bassa project. So to write instructions for setting the project, i was checking it on 2 platforms : ubuntu16.10 and fedora24. But the shell script for installation is platform dependent. It seems that they had written it only for ubuntu. So i was customizing the script to make it work for all platforms(windows, linx- ubuntu, debian,fedora, centos and mac, core os, arch etc .). So to detect os name, i am using python program and passing a variable(which detects the os name) to shell script. I stuck here on how to pass variable from python file to shell script. Looking for a solution.

89 @rehrumesh My proposed solution for this issue. I wrote the guideline only for Ubuntu. Testing on fedora and centos too and customizing the install.sh so that it can work on all operating systems.
