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

This example is taken from [`molecule/default/converge.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-sysctl/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.sysctl
sysctl_items:
- name: net.ipv4.ip_forward
value: 1
```

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

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

roles:
- role: robertdebock.bootstrap
```

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-sysctl/blob/master/defaults/main.yml):

```yaml
---
# defaults file for sysctl

# Verify token value with the sysctl command and set with -w if necessary
sysctl_set: true

# if yes, performs a /sbin/sysctl -p if the sysctl_file is updated.
# If no, does not reload sysctl even if the sysctl_file is updated
sysctl_reload: true
```
