# [Ansible role filesystem](#ansible-role-filesystem)
Make filesystems.

## [Example Playbook](#example-playbook)
This example is taken from [`molecule/default/converge.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-filesystem/blob/master/molecule/default/converge.yml) and is tested on each push, pull request and release.
```yaml
---
- name: Converge
hosts: all
become: true
gather_facts: true
roles:
- role: robertdebock.filesystem
filesystem_list:
- dev: disk_1
fstype: ext4
- dev: disk_2
fstype: ext3
opts: -cc
- dev: disk_3
state: absent
```
The machine needs to be prepared. In CI this is done using [`molecule/default/prepare.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-filesystem/blob/master/molecule/default/prepare.yml):
```yaml
---
- name: Prepare
hosts: all
become: true
gather_facts: false
roles:
- role: robertdebock.bootstrap
tasks:
- name: Make disk image
command: truncate -s 16M "{{ item }}"
args:
creates: "{{ item }}"
loop:
- disk_1
- disk_2
- disk_3
```
Also see a [full explanation and example](https://robertdebock.nl/how-to-use-these-roles.html) on how to use these roles.
## [Role Variables](#role-variables)
The default values for the variables are set in [`defaults/main.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-filesystem/blob/master/defaults/main.yml):
```yaml
---
# defaults file for filesystem
# If not specified in the `filesystem_list`, use this filesytem type.
filesytem_default_filesystem: ext4
# A list of filesytems to manage.
filesystem_list: []
# For example:
# filesystem_list:
# - dev: /dev/sdb1
# fstype: ext4
# - dev: /dev/sdb2
# fstype: ext3
# opts: -cc
# - dev: /dev/sdb3
# state: absent
# - dev /dev/sdb4
# fstype: swap
```
