Example Playbook

- hosts: servers
  become: yes
  roles:
  - maxlareo.debpkg
  vars:
  - debpkg_piuparts: true
  - debpkg_chroots:
      wheezy:
      jessie:
      jessie-backports:
        suite: jessie
        prefix: jessie-backports
        extra_repository: 'deb http://deb.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main'
      xenial-test:
        suite: xenial
        prefix: whatever
        suffix: iwant
        arch: i386
        homedir: '/home/sbuild-test/xenial-testing-var'
        mirror: 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu'

Exemple made on Debian distribution !

On other distributions the default mirror variable will not be the same, so for Debian chroot the mirror variable is optional for a Debian chroot, but for an Ubuntu chroot, by exemple, it will be mandatory on a Debian host !
