GitHub	Version	Issues	Pull Requests	Downloads

Example Playbook

This example comes from molecule/default/converge.yml and is tested whenever there's a push, pull request, or release.

---
- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: true

  pre_tasks:
    - name: Update apt cache.
      ansible.builtin.apt: update_cache=true cache_valid_time=600
      when: ansible_os_family == 'Debian'
      changed_when: false

  roles:
    - role: buluma.go

  tasks:
    - name: Verify that Go is installed and available in the $PATH.
      ansible.builtin.command: go version
      environment:
        PATH: /usr/local/go/bin:{{ ansible_env.PATH }}
      changed_when: false

The machine needs to be set up first. In CI, this is done using molecule/default/prepare.yml:

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: false

  roles:
    - role: buluma.bootstrap
    - role: buluma.core_dependencies
    - role: buluma.buildtools
    - role: buluma.ca_certificates
