## [Example Playbook](#example-playbook)

This example is taken from [`molecule/default/converge.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-grub/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.grub
grub_options:
- option: cgroup_enable
value: memory
- option: systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy
value: 0
```

The machine needs to be prepared. In CI this is done using [`molecule/default/prepare.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-grub/blob/master/molecule/default/prepare.yml):

```yaml
---
- name: Prepare
hosts: all
become: true
gather_facts: false

roles:
- role: robertdebock.bootstrap

tasks:
- name: Make /etc/default
ansible.builtin.file:
path: /etc/default
state: directory
mode: "0755"

- name: Place bogus /etc/default/grub
ansible.builtin.copy:
content: 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="a=1"'
dest: /etc/default/grub
mode: "0664"
```
