antigen_bundles

Ansible Role: Antigen Bundles

Ansible role to add bundles to your Antigen configuration for Zsh. It is useful to combine this role with Ansible tags to conditionally install particular bundles.

Important: you must have installed Antigen using the gantsign.antigen role (and configured Antigen for the same user) for this role to work.

:thumbsdown: Deprecation Notice :thumbsdown:

The last Antigen release was v2.2.3 on 4 Jan 2018. Since Antigen appears to no longer be maintained, we recommend against using this role. This role will continue to be maintained until such time as GantSign migrates to a different Zsh plugin manager.

Role Variables

The following variables will change the behavior of this role:

users:
  - username: # The username of the user to install Antigen for
    antigen_bundles:
      - name: # The name of the Antigen bundle (e.g. one of the plugins that come with Oh-My-Zsh)
        url: # Optional. If the it's not one of the Oh-My-Zsh plugins you must specify the URL (use owner/repo shorthand for GitHub)
        location: # Optional. The directory in the repository containing the plugin
        branch: # Optional. Git branch to checkout.
        tag: # Optional. Git tag to checkout (takes preference over branch)
        args: [] # Optional. Command line arguments to pass to Antigen
        env: {} # Optional. Environnement variables to set
      # more bundles here
  # more users here

Example Playbooks

Example showing just the configuration for this role:

- hosts: servers
  roles:
    - role: gantsign.antigen_bundles
      users:
        - username: example
          antigen_bundles:
            # Bundle from the default repo (robbyrussell's oh-my-zsh)
            - name: command-not-found
            # Syntax highlighting bundle
            - name: zsh-syntax-highlighting # `name` is required (any valid file name will do so long as it's unique for the bundles)
              url: zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting

Example with the required companion gantsign.antigen role:

- hosts: servers
  roles:
    - role: gantsign.antigen
      users:
        - username: example
          antigen_libraries:
            - name: oh-my-zsh
          antigen_theme:
            name: robbyrussell
          antigen_bundles:
            - name: command-not-found
            - name: docker
            - name: git

    - role: gantsign.antigen_bundles
      tags:
        - java
      users:
        - username: example
          antigen_bundles:
            - name: mvn

In the above example the mvn bundle/plugin will not be installed if you tell Ansible to skip tasks with the java tag.

More Roles From GantSign

You can find more roles from GantSign on Ansible Galaxy.

Development & Testing

This project uses Molecule to aid in the development and testing; the role is unit tested using Testinfra and pytest.

To develop or test you'll need to have installed the following:

Linux (e.g. Ubuntu)
Docker
Python (including python-pip)
Ansible
Molecule

Because the above can be tricky to install, this project includes Molecule Wrapper. Molecule Wrapper is a shell script that installs Molecule and it's dependencies (apart from Linux) and then executes Molecule with the command you pass it.

To test this role using Molecule Wrapper run the following command from the project root:
