Role Variables
--------------
The following variables will change the behavior of this role (default values
are shown below):
```yaml
# Java version number
# Specify '8', '11', '17' or '21' to get the latest patch version of that
# release.
java_version: '21.0.2+13'
# Base installation directory for any Java distribution
java_install_dir: '/opt/java'
# Directory to store files downloaded for Java installation on the remote box
java_download_dir: "{{ x_ansible_download_dir | default(ansible_env.HOME + '/.ansible/tmp/downloads') }}"
# Location Java installations packages can be found on the local box
# local packages will be uses in preference to downloading new packages.
java_local_archive_dir: '{{ playbook_dir }}/files'
# Wether to use installation packages in the local archive (if available)
java_use_local_archive: true
# If this is the default installation, profile scripts will be written to set
# the JAVA_HOME environment variable and add the bin directory to the PATH
# environment variable.
java_is_default_installation: true
# Name of the group of Ansible facts relating this Java installation.
#
# Override if you want use this role more than once to install multiple versions
# of Java.
#
# e.g. java_fact_group_name: java_8
# would change the Java home fact to:
# ansible_local.java_8.general.home
java_fact_group_name: java
# The SHA-256 for the JDK redistributable
java_redis_sha256sum:
# Mirror location for JDK download (e.g. https://example.com/provisioning/files)
java_redis_mirror:
# File name for the JDK redistributable installation file
java_redis_filename:
# Timeout for JDK download response in seconds
java_download_timeout_seconds: 600
# The timeout for the Adoptium API
java_api_timeout_seconds: 30
```
Example Playbooks
-----------------
By default this role will install the latest LTS JDK version provided by
Adoptium that has been tested and is known to work with this role:
```yaml
- hosts: servers
roles:
- role: gantsign.java
```
You can install a specific version of the JDK by specifying the `java_version`.
```yaml
- hosts: servers
roles:
- role: gantsign.java
java_version: '8.0.402+6'
```
**Note:** with [curl](https://curl.haxx.se) and
[jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq) you can view the available versions by
running the following command:
```bash
for i in 21 17 11 8; do (curl --silent http \
"https://api.adoptium.net/v3/info/release_names?version=%5B$i,$(($i + 1)))\
&release_type=ga" | jq --raw-output '.releases[]' | sed -E 's/^jdk\-?//'); done
```
You can install the multiple versions of the JDK by using this role more than
once:
```yaml
- hosts: servers
roles:
- role: ansible-role-java
java_version: '8'
java_is_default_installation: false
java_fact_group_name: java_8
- role: ansible-role-java
java_version: '11'
java_is_default_installation: true
java_fact_group_name: java
```
To perform an offline install, you need to specify a bit more information (i.e.
`java_major_version`, `java_release_name`, `java_redis_filename` and
`java_redis_sha256sum`). E.g. to perform an offline install of `11.0.22+7`:
```yaml
# Before performing the offline install, download
# `OpenJDK11U-jdk_x64_linux_hotspot_11.0.22_7.tar.gz` to
# `{{ playbook_dir }}/files/` on the local machine.
- hosts: servers
roles:
- role: gantsign.java
java_major_version: '11'
java_version: '11.0.22+7'
java_release_name: 'jdk-11.0.22+7'
java_redis_filename: 'OpenJDK11U-jdk_x64_linux_hotspot_11.0.22_7.tar.gz'
java_redis_sha256sum: '25cf602cac350ef36067560a4e8042919f3be973d419eac4d839e2e0000b2cc8'
```
Role Facts
----------
This role exports the following Ansible facts for use by other roles:
* `ansible_local.java.general.version`
* e.g. `8u402`
* `ansible_local.java.general.home`
* e.g. `/opt/java/jdk8u402`
Overriding `java_fact_group_name` will change the names of the facts e.g.:
```yaml
java_fact_group_name: java_8
```
Would change the name of the facts to:
* `ansible_local.java_8.general.version`
* `ansible_local.java_8.general.home`
