Help Wanted! If you are able and willing to help maintain this Ansible role then please open a GitHub issue. A lot of people seem to use this role and we (quite obviously) need assistance! π
Ansible role which installs and configures PostgreSQL, extensions, databases and users.
Installation
This has been tested on Ansible 2.4.0 and higher.
To install:
ansible-galaxy install ANXS.postgresql
Dependencies
- ANXS.monit (Galaxy/GH) if you want monit protection (in that case, you should set
monit_protection: true
)

Testing
This project comes with a Vagrantfile, this is a fast and easy way to test changes to the role, fire it up with vagrant up
See vagrant docs for getting setup with vagrant
Once your VM is up, you can reprovision it using either vagrant provision
, or ansible-playbook tests/playbook.yml -i vagrant-inventory
If you want to toy with the test play, see tests/playbook.yml, and change the variables in tests/vars.yml
If you are contributing, please first test your changes within the vagrant environment, (using the targeted distribution), and if possible, ensure your change is covered in the tests found in .travis.yml
