Example Playbook

Here’s a simple example from molecule/default/converge.yml. This example is tested every time you push, create a pull request, or release.

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

  roles:
    - role: buluma.hostname

Before running this, your machine needs to be prepared, which can be done using molecule/default/prepare.yml:

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

  roles:
    - role: buluma.bootstrap

You can find more details and examples on how to use these roles.

---
# defaults file for hostname

# The hostname to set. Defaults to the inventory name.
hostname: "{{ inventory_hostname_short }}"

# Should the machine be restarted when the hostname changes?
hostname_reboot: true
