Example Playbook

Here is an example to use this role, taken from molecule/default/converge.yml. It gets tested every time any change is made.

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

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.mediawiki
      mediawiki_destination: /opt

Before running this, the machine needs to be set up. This is done in CI using molecule/default/prepare.yml:

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

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap
    - role: robertdebock.core_dependencies
    - role: robertdebock.epel
    - role: robertdebock.python_pip
    - role: robertdebock.buildtools
    - role: robertdebock.openssl
      openssl_items:
        - name: apache-httpd
          common_name: "{{ ansible_fqdn }}"
    - role: robertdebock.httpd
    - role: robertdebock.php
    - role: robertdebock.mysql
      mysql_databases:
        - name: mediawiki
      mysql_users:
        - name: mediawiki
          password: m3d14w1k1
          priv: "mediawiki.*:ALL"
