Example Playbook

Here's a simple example from molecule/default/converge.yml that is tested whenever the code is updated.

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

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.sosreport

Make sure the machine is set up first. In Continuous Integration (CI), this is done with molecule/default/prepare.yml:

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: false
  serial: 30%

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap

For more details, see a full explanation and example on how to use these roles.
