Install and configure java on your system.

GitHub	Version	Issues	Pull Requests	Downloads

Example Playbook

This example is taken from molecule/default/converge.yml and is tested on each push, pull request and release.

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

  roles:
    - role: buluma.java
# To install Oracle java 21 package:
# NOTE: Please download Java yourself, place it in `files/`.
# This is to avoid licensing issues.
# java_source: local
# java_type: jdk
# java_format: deb
# java_version: 21

The machine needs to be prepared. In CI this is done using molecule/default/prepare.yml:

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

  roles:
    - role: buluma.bootstrap

Also see a full explanation and example on how to use these roles.
