ansible-role-java8

Ansible role to Install the Oracle Java 8 using webupd8 ppa.

This is a fork of malk/ansible-java8-oracle with following changes:

• patch from CkReal/ansible-java8-oracle
• added automated tests

It works on Ubuntu. Should work on Mint. Debian is not supported at the moment.

Licence is auto-accepted (no prompt) and the whole thing is idempotent (executing it several times will not do unneeded steps again).

No usage of 'shell:' only ansible commands.

Requirements

None.

Role Variables

None.

Dependencies

None.

Example Playbook

    - hosts: servers
      roles:
        - gtrafimenkov/java8-oracle

Automated tests

There is a basic test for Travis CI and a suite of tests to run on virtual machines.

To run tests on virtual machines you will need:

• VirtualBox installed
• Vagrant (version 1.8.3 or later) installed
• fetch ansible-test-farm-v1 submodule: git submodule init && git submodule update

Here is how to test the role on Ubuntu 14.04: make all_tests LIMIT=ubuntu1404. The test is successful if Ansible reports no failures during the test. Use make help for more examples of how to run tests.

At the moment there are tests for:

• Debian 7
• Debian 8
• Ubuntu 12.04
• Ubuntu 14.04
• Ubuntu 16.04
