Role Name

Install my favorite texteditor; Textadept

Description

I tend to use Textadept for quite a number of choices in text editing. It's my go to texteditor. However, the texteditor that can does not have the great support I would enjoy for it when doing a new install. This role rectifies that wrong. The texteditor is installed with all the modules I tend to use and configurations I like to have for a full setup. As such, the role provisions specifically to the needs of a heavy user of the product. You can however navigate through the yaml files, of the role, to get what you desire as well.

A couple of variables to note for use:

• ta: holds textadept configurations

  • src: the location for the textadept install
  • version: the version of textadept to install

• user: holds user information

  • name: the name of the user for the provisioned client.
  • home: home of the user.

Usage

The role is simple enough to use. First make sure you change the role variables listed above. After you can simply append to your playbook wherever you wish:

- hosts: servers
    roles:
        - textadept
