Ansible as a Docker Container

Important
 This documentation is a work in progress!

The development and test of ansible-oracle is done in a Docker Container. This allows a simple switch between ansible versions and an easy implementation at a customer site, because you can use your own chosen version of Ansible for ansible-oracle.

Requirements:

  • Docker

  • docker-compose

  • ssh-agent
    The ssh-agent is configured inside the docker-compose.yml. It simplifies the connection to the target machines via SSH.

Build

cd docker
docker-compose build

Start Container

cd docker
docker-compose run --rm ansible bash

Install Collection

Important
 ansible-oracle is designed to run as a container. 
cd docker
docker-compose run --rm ansible bash
ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml
