Ansible Distro Configure Playbooks

Ansible roles and playbooks to configure different *nix distros.

Prerequisite

• Ansible
• git-crypt optional for keeping encrypted configurations.

If you are using git-crypt, setup your key, and override the encrypted files (host_vars/*.yml) with your own version.

If you are not using git-crypt, delete the .gitattributes file and override the encrypted files with your own version. Ex. rm .gitattributes && cp host_vars/ubuntuiso.local.yml.example host_vars/ubuntuiso.local.yml

Playbook: distro-install

Check distro-install playbook

Playbook: distro-configure

• Configure the ssh login (user/key/port/etc) in your ~/.ssh/config for the username you want to run.
• Install ansible required dependencies
• Configure the desired host_vars in this playbook
• Run the playbook

Example:

tee ~/.ssh/config << EOF
Host *.local
  User u53rnam3
  Port 1337
  ForwardAgent yes
  StreamLocalBindUnlink yes
EOF

git clone https://git.sr.ht/~a14m/ansible-distro-configure /opt/distro-configure
cp /opt/distro-configure/host_vars/${DISTRO}.local.yml.example /opt/distro-configure/host_vars/${DISTRO}.local.yml

cd /opt/distro-install
ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml

ansible-playbook site.yml --ask-become-pass
