using Ansible *in pull mode* from this repo.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
First, install Ansible on your machine (to do that we first install `pip`, then
|
|
|
|
|
use that to install `ansible`):
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt install python3-pip
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo python3 -m pip install ansible
|
|
|
|
|
$ sudo python3 -m pip install ansible jmespath
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that this installs `ansible` and its related binaries in `/usr/local/bin/`.
|
|
|
|
|
We do it this way to avoid messing with `PATH` or virtual environments at this point.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We also installed `jmespath` which is required by the `json_query` filter which
|
|
|
|
|
is used in some tasks of this playbook.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`ansible-pull` pulls a playbook from a remote repo and executes it on the host.
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
$ ansible-pull -U https://codeberg.org/ansible/playbook-workstation
|
|
|
|
|
$ ansible-pull -U https://codeberg.org/ansible/playbook-workstation --ask-become-pass
