The process is -quite similar to ~ansible-playbook~, the only difference is that the source for -the playbook will be a remote repository and not a local file. Following the -previous example we'll get vim setup automated. - -Create a git repository wherever you see fit, [[https://about.gitlab.com/][gitlab]] and [[https://github.com/][github]] offer free -repositories. For this task we need to add only two file: one for the -~yml~ file describing the tasks and the ~.vimrc~ file. - - -In the ~.vimrc~ add your own configuration, you can see mine [[https://gitlab.com/gabrielgio/homestation/-/blob/debcf3458df511aef9f7dca0cb73f6cf6baddd5d/.vimrc][over here]], it is -pretty simple as I don't use it but for simple text editing (like this post) so -you can start with that if you don't have one. - -The ~yml~ file will have two tasks, one is to install vim, just like we did in -the part 1. - -#+BEGIN_SRC yaml -# main.yml ---- -- name: install vim - dnf: - name: vim - state: latest -#+END_SRC - -To copy ~.vimrc~ file to your ~$HOME~ we going to use [[https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/copy_module.html][copy module]]: - -#+BEGIN_SRC yaml -# main.yml ---- -- name: copy vimrc file - copy: - src: config/.vimrc - dest: ~/ - mode: 0644 -#+END_SRC - -After we've added those two files to repository you will have be something [[https://gitlab.com/gabrielgio/homestation/-/tree/debcf3458df511aef9f7dca0cb73f6cf6baddd5d][like -this]]. - -And now we just need to run ~ansible-pull~ command - -#+BEGIN_SRC shell -# you may need run it as a sudo -ansible-pull -U $YOUR_REPO -i all main.yml -#+END_SRC - -Params: -- *~-i~* is a list of hosts. -- *~-U~* is the git repository URL. - -Remember ~man~ is your best friend, take a look at ~man ansible-pull~ to know -more about its parameters. - -The best part you can quickly test and see the result by running my sample: -#+BEGIN_SRC shell -ansible-pull -U https://gitlab.com/gabrielgio/homestation.git -C debcf3458df511aef9f7dca0cb73f6cf6baddd5d -i all main.yml -#+END_SRC - -The idea here is to keep your repository as a source of truth when comes to -configuration, you can add ~ansible-pull~ to a CRON tab, so you just need to push -something to your repository and after a few minutes not only your machine but -all the machines that have it setup will run the playbooks.
