- See part 1 -

- Now we're going to setup ansible to work with a git repository. 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, gitlab - and 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 - - 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. -

# main.yml
----
-- name: install vim
-  dnf:
-    name: vim
-    state: latest
-

-

- To copy .vimrc file to your $HOME we going to - use copy - module: -

-

- After we've added those two files to repository you will have be something - - like this. - -
- Parms: -

-

-

- 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: -

ansible-pull \
-    -U https://gitlab.com/gabrielgio/homestation.git \
-    -C debcf3458df511aef9f7dca0cb73f6cf6baddd5d \
-    -i all \
-    main.yml
-

-

- 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. You - can use this method as a simple way to install software, update machines or - even distribute tooling company-wise. -
