## Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the role for your ansible playbook. Once launched, it will install a [Tomcat](https://tomcat.apache.org/) server in a Debian system.
Supported tomcat versions:
- 7.x
- 8.x
- 8.5.x
- 9.x
Supported OS:
- Debian:
- Stretch
- Buster
- Ubuntu
- Focal
### Prerequisities
For compatible Ansible versions check [.travis.yml](.travis.yml).
Inventory destination should be a Debian environment.
For testing purposes, [Molecule](https://molecule.readthedocs.io/) with Docker as driver and [Goss](http://goss.rocks) as verifier
This role needs a system with java previously installed. Its really recommended the use of idealista's java role for that purpose: [idealista.java-role](https://github.com/idealista/java_role)
### Installing
Create or add to your roles dependency file (e.g requirements.yml) from GitHub:
```
- src: http://github.com/idealista/tomcat_role.git
scm: git
version: 1.0.0
name: tomcat
```
or using [Ansible Galaxy](https://galaxy.ansible.com/idealista/tomcat_role/) as origin if you prefer:
```
- src: idealista.tomcat_role
version: 1.0.0
name: tomcat
```
Install the role with ansible-galaxy command:
```
ansible-galaxy install -p roles -r requirements.yml -f
```
Use in a playbook:
```
- hosts: someserver
roles:
- { role: tomcat }
```
## Usage
Look to the defaults properties file to see the possible configuration properties.

pipenv sync
pipenv shell
```
For more information read the [pipenv docs](https://docs.pipenv.org/).
