Docker

Installs the Docker service on a host. Additionally, it configures the "docker" system user group. When the Docker daemon detects a group named "docker" then it allows any user in that group access, instead of limiting access to only the root user.

Because this configures a Docker group, consider carefully if it matches the security requirements of your own deployment plans.

Requirements

Ansible 2.4 or higher
