Hi,  
I've seen reference to a beats playbook here:

> **[Deploying Elasticsearch with Ansible](https://www.elastic.co/blog/deploying-elasticsearch-with-ansible)**
>
> Ansible role for Elasticsearch. An example deployment using Docker and a simple playbook.

What is the status of the beats ansible playbook and role(s)?

Regards,  
David

Thanks for the interest. I think the Beats playbooks are still a work in progress.
