Example Playbook

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

---
- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  # This role installs packages using the `raw` module and connects as
  # `root`. (`sudo` is not available before bootstrapping.) All tasks in the
  # role have `become` set to `false`, so you can use either `false` or `true`
  # for `become`, and the role will not use `sudo` for any task.
  become: true  # `false` will also work.
  # This role installs python; facts can't be gathered before `python` is
  # installed. This role runs the `setup` module, so facts will be available
  # after the role runs.
  gather_facts: false

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap
