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

This example is taken from [`molecule/default/converge.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-tailscale/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.tailscale
# When setting the `tailscale_authkey`, a node can join automatically.
# In case the `tailscale_authkey` is unset, registration of the node is manual.
# tailscale_authkey: "tskey-auth-KEY_IDENTITY-KEY_SERET_KEY_SERET_KEY_SERET_KE"
#
# You can request the node to publish itself as an exit node.
# tailscale_exit_node: true
#
# You can advertise certain routes to the Tailscale network.
# tailscale_advertise_routes:
# - 10.0.0.0/24
# - 10.0.1.0/24
#
# You can give hosts a specific name:
# tailscale_hostname: some_hostname
```

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

```yaml
---
# defaults file for tailscale

# You can configure your tailscale node to act as an exit node.
# Enabling this, sets the required sysctl settings and adds a firewalld rule.
tailscale_exit_node: false

# To route traffice for certain subnets through tailscale, add them here.
tailscale_advertise_routes: []

# Nodes can authenticate with the tailscale service using an authkey.
# These keys can be created here: https://login.tailscale.com/admin/settings/keys
tailscale_authkey: ""

# You can specify a hostname.
tailscale_hostname: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
```
