aiqu/ansible repository overview

⁠Ansible installed in a docker image

Alpine container with ansible installed by using pip3.

• Alpine version: 3.9
• Ansible Version: 2.8.1

Docker image-versioning follows the ansible versions

⁠Running the container

docker run --rm -it -v <your-ansible-files>:/etc/ansible aiqu/ansible:latest

You should atleast include config-file & private ssh-key. Example minimal configuration mount as volume (ansible.cfg):

[defaults]
inventory         = ./inventory/
roles_path        = ./playbooks/roles
private_key_file  = ./auth/id_rsa
host_key_checking = False

⁠Other options

If you use entrypoint/cmd commented out at bottom of Dockerfile and re-build (or override entrypoint), you can run ansible without installing locally (or even from Windows). E.g. create alias and run as normal

⁠With custom image (Linux)

alias ansible='docker run --rm -it -v <your-ansible-files>:/etc/ansible <customized-ansible-image>:latest'

⁠With override (Linux)

alias ansible='docker run --rm -it --entrypoint /usr/bin/ansible -v <your-ansible-files>:/etc/ansible aiqu/ansible:latest'
