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

  # pre_tasks:
  #   # create local user
  #   - name: Create system group
  #     ansible.builtin.group:
  #       name: "minikube"
  #       state: present

  #   - name: Create system user
  #     ansible.builtin.user:
  #       name: "minikube"
  #       group: "minikube"
  #       shell: "/bin/bash"
  #       state: present
  roles:
    - role: "mullholland.minikube"

    # tasks:
    #   # start minikube
    #   - name: start minikube
    #     ansible.builtin.command:
    #       cmd: "minikube start"
    #       creates: nothing
    #     become: yes
    #     become_user: "minikube"

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

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

  tasks:
    - name: Install dependencies
      ansible.builtin.package:
        name:
          - "conntrack"  # Kubernetes 1.23.3 requires conntrack to be installed in root's path
          - "iproute"  # minikube dependency
          - "ethtool"  # minikube dependency
          - "socat"  # minikube dependency
        state: present
      when:
        - ansible_distribution in [ "RedHat", "CentOS", "Amazon", "Rocky", "AlmaLinux", "Fedora" ]

    - name: Install dependencies
      ansible.builtin.package:
        name:
          - "conntrack"  # Kubernetes 1.23.3 requires conntrack to be installed in root's path
          - "iproute2"  # minikube dependency
          - "ethtool"  # minikube dependency
          - "socat"  # minikube dependency
        state: present
      when:
        - ansible_os_family == "Debian"

# Possible driver for local installation
#   roles:
#     - role: mullholland.docker
