w4tsn/mirror-ansible-client

An ansible project for managing my client and workstation devices. (Mirror of https://git.shivering-isles.com/w4tsn/ansible-client)

Ansible Client Deployment

This repository provides the ability to install your Client in a few minutes.

We setup various things, like updating your client to the latest state, install packages like VSCode, VLC, Tilix and more, to take your whole client into a working state.

Usage

Clone the repository, and use ansible-playbook to run it.

Optionally in order to use the optional roles not included in the default clients.yml playbook make a copy of it with the filename custom.yml, which is part of .gitignore by default.

Also install Python2, since it is required by ansible and e.g. Fedora decided to not ship it anymore since F29.

Fedora

sudo dnf install git ansible python
git clone https://octo.sh/ansible-client/ansible-client.git
cd ansible-client
ansible-playbook clients.yml

Extend/personalize your setup

To extend the default packages you can use extend_packages in your host_vars/localhost file.

To install cowsay for example:

---

extend_packages:
  - dnf: cowsay

Development

Feel free to extend this repository with your own idea. It would be lovely to see Pull Requests and more. 👋
