# Ansible Collection - middleware_automation.infinispan
[](https://github.com/ansible-middleware/infinispan/actions/workflows/ci.yml)
> **_NOTE:_ If you are Red Hat customer, install `redhat.data_grid` from [Automation Hub](https://console.redhat.com/ansible/automation-hub/repo/published/redhat/data_grid/) as the certified version of this collection.**
This is an Ansible collection dedicated to [Infinispan](https://infinispan.org/).
Infinispan can be used as remote caches for other software, such as [Keycloak](https://www.keycloak.org/) or [Wildfly](https://https://www.wildfly.org/).
## Ansible version compatibility
This collection has been tested against following Ansible versions: **>=2.15.0**.
Plugins and modules within a collection may be tested with only specific Ansible versions. A collection may contain metadata that identifies these versions.
## Installation and Usage
### Installing the Collection from Ansible Galaxy
Before using the collection, you need to install it with the Ansible Galaxy CLI:
ansible-galaxy collection install middleware_automation.infinispan
You can also include it in a `requirements.yml` file and install it via `ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml`, using the format:
```yaml
---
collections:
- name: middleware_automation.infinispan
```
### Build and install locally
Clone the repository, checkout the tag you want to build, or pick the main branch for the development version; then:
ansible-galaxy collection build .
ansible-galaxy collection install middleware_automation-amq-*.tar.gz
### Dependencies
#### Ansible collections:
* [middleware_automation.common](https://github.com/ansible-middleware/common)
* [ansible.posix](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/posix/index.html)
#### Python:
The infinispan collection also depends on the following python packages to be present on the controller host:
* lxml
* jmespath
A requirement file is provided to install:
pip install -r requirements.txt
### Included roles
* [`infinispan`](https://github.com/ansible-middleware/infinispan/tree/main/roles/infinispan): performs an installation of Infinispan or DataGrid nodes or cluster, with configuration of static caches.
* [`infinispan_cache`](https://github.com/ansible-middleware/infinispan/tree/main/roles/infinispan_cache): creates Infinispan or DataGrid caches at runtime.
### Install playbook
* [`playbooks/infinispan.yml`](https://github.com/ansible-middleware/amq/blob/main/playbooks/infinispan.yml) deploys based on the collections defaults.
#### Controller node install zipfile path
By default the collection will download the desired version of the install zipfile to the ansible controller node, then it will distribute to target nodes.
#### Offline from controller node
Making the install zipfile archive available to the playbook working directory, and setting `infinispan_offline_install` to `true`, allows to skip
the download tasks. The local path for the archive does match the downloaded archive path, so that it is also used as a cache when multiple hosts are provisioned in a cluster.
```yaml
infinispan_offline_install: true
```
