I have been trying to use Ansible more often and since I don't have much idea about how Kubernetes works either I decided to learn about both at same time creating an Ansible playbook to create a Kubernetes Cluster in KVM.
You can see the readme file from my GitHub with more information about the different files and how to make it work:
Here is the execution, but this post is more an invitation for you to try it out and tell me what different path would have you taken and see what errors I have made along the road.
If you visit the GitHub repository, you will see some issues I'm already aware and will try to fix, but I'm trying now to start actually using the cluster and see what can I do with it, so not sure how much of those will get fixed any time soon :P

Hope this allows you to test Kubernetes in your system and more importantly, see how cool Ansible is even when you have little knowledge of it.
