# ansible-bundle
Small tool for automatic download roles and libs a-la-Gemfile
# Preamble
As many roles have changed their configurations among time, anyone would use a
specific version of a role (for instance, a commit, or a branch, or a tag).
Moreover, a complex playbook could need different versions from the same role.
This app will download roles (bundles, from now on) from their
repositories before launching a playbook. _That means that a role should be in
its own repository_.
# Prerequisites
- Ansible. Any version.
- Git >= 1.8.5
- Python 2 >= 2.6
# Installation
## The easy way: pip
`sudo pip install ansible-bundle`
## The not-that-easy way: from code
- Download [latest release](../../archive/master.zip)
- Run `sudo python setup.py`
# Syntax
`ansible-bundle FILEYAML [ansible-playbook-options] [ansible-bundle-options]`
ansible-bundle, along the ansible-playbook parameters, has also these:
- `--bundle-clean-roles` Will clean roles and library directories before download (*)
- `--bundle-dry` Shows what will be run (as it won't download anything,
also won't search for dependencies)
- `--bundle-deps-only` Don't run the playbook, just satisfy dependencies.
- `--bundle-disable-color` Useful for non-interactive consoles
- `--bundle-workers` concurrent connections when downloading/updating roles. Default: 1
- `--bundle-safe-update` Don't clean existing roles. (*)
(*) If both `bundle-clean-roles` and `bundle-safe-update` are set, `bundle-clean-roles` will take effect.
# Configuration
ansible-bundle expects to find a `[bundle]` section into ansible.cfg, which may
contain some of the command lines parameters:
- workers
- verbosity
- safe
And the following extra options:
- `url`: URL where the roles are located. For example, if role `apache` is in
`github.com/foo/roles/apache`, the `url` should be set to `github.com/foo/roles`.
Default is 'https://github.com'
## bundle.cfg example
[bundle]
url='git@github.com:devopsysadmin/ansible-roles'
workers=5
verbosity=1
# Example of use
Given the following playbook (site.yml):
- include: site-common.yml
tags:
- common
- hosts: all
roles:
- postgresql@1.0
- { role: apache, version: '2.4' }
Running `ansible-bundle site.yml` will search roles into the `site-common.yml` file and
add to download queue, which already includes postgresql 1.0 and apache master.
Please note that each role is intended to be in its own repository, not in a folder.
# Changelog
## v 0.6
- Syntax role/version changes to role@version. This simplifies the configuration in
ansible.cfg and allows branches names such as feature/something in role version.
If a versioned role with the previous syntax is found, will complain with a
deprecation warning. The previous syntax will be obsoleted in v 0.7.
