# Ansible for DevOps Examples

[![CI](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops/workflows/CI/badge.svg?event=push)](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops/actions?query=workflow%3ACI) [![Molecule CI](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops/workflows/Molecule%20CI/badge.svg?event=push)](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops/actions?query=workflow%3A%22Molecule+CI%22)

This repository contains Ansible examples developed to support different sections of [Ansible for DevOps](https://www.ansiblefordevops.com/), a book on [Ansible](http://www.ansible.com/) by [Jeff Geerling](https://www.jeffgeerling.com/).

Many examples use Vagrant, VirtualBox, and Ansible to boot and configure VMs on your local workstation.

Not all playbooks follow all of Ansible's best practices, as they illustrate particular Ansible features in an instructive manner.

## Manuscript

The book's manuscript is released under the CC BY-SA license, and is publicly available in a separate repository: [Ansible for DevOps - Manuscript](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops-manuscript).

### Chapter 3

  - [`orchestration`](orchestration/): A simple multiple-VM Vagrant configuration and Ansible inventory to allow testing of multi-server orchestration with `ansible` ad-hoc commands.

### Chapter 4

  - [`drupal`](drupal/): A single-file playbook which configures the LAMP stack on a Linux host and installs Drupal.

  - [`includes`](includes/): The same playbook as the [`drupal`](drupal/) example, but using `include`s to make the playbook more understandable.

  - [`nodejs`](nodejs/): A single-file playbook which configures a Node.js app to run on a Linux host.

  - [`solr`](solr/): A single-file playbook which installs Apache Solr on a Linux host.

### Chapter 5

  - N/A

### Chapter 6

  - [`nodejs-role`](nodejs-role/): The same playbook as the [`nodejs`](nodejs/) example, but using a role to break out the Node.js aspects into a separate `nodejs` role.

  - [`galaxy-role-servers`](galaxy-role-servers/): A couple very short playbooks that demonstrate how easy it is to get new servers running leveraging the power of community Ansible Galaxy roles.

### Chapter 7

  - [`test-plugin`](test-plugin/): A simple test plugin that verifies a given value is representative of the color blue.

  - [`collection`](collection/): An example local collection to demonstrate the basic structure of content collections.
