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

This example is taken from [`molecule/default/converge.yml`](https://github.com/robertdebock/ansible-role-vault_agent/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.vault_agent
vault_agent_address: "http://vault.example.com:8200"
vault_agent_auto_auth:
methods:
- name: "approle"
config:
role_id_file_path: "/etc/vault-agent/role_id"
secret_id_file_path: "/etc/vault-agent/secret_id"
# - name: "aws"
# mount_path: "auth/aws-subaccount"
# config:
# type: "iam"
# role: "foobar"
sinks:
- name: file
config:
path: "/tmp/file-foo"
- name: "file"
wrap_ttl: "5m"
aad_env_var: "Test_AAD_ENV"
dh_type: "curve25519"
dh_path: "/tmp/file-foo-dhpath2"
config:
path: "/tmp/file-bar"
vault_agent_listeners:
# - name: "unix"
# address: "/path/to/socket"
# tls_disable: true
# agent_api:
# enable_quit: true
- name: "tcp"
address: "127.0.0.1:8100"
tls_disable: true
# vault_agent_templates:
# - source: "/etc/vault-agent/server.key.ctmpl"
# destination: "/tmp/server.key"
# - source: "/etc/vault-agent/server.crt.ctmpl"
# destination: "/tmp/server.crt"
vault_agent_env_templates:
- name: "USERNAME"
contents: "{{ '{{ with secret \\\"secret/data/foo\\\" }}{{ .Data.data.password }}{{ end }}' }}"
error_on_missing_key: true
- name: "PASSWORD"
contents: "{{ '{{ with secret \\\"secret/data/foo\\\" }}{{ .Data.data.user }}{{ end }}' }}"
error_on_missing_key: true
vault_agent_exec:
command: ["/path/to/my-app", "arg1", "arg2"]
restart_on_secret_changes: "always"
restart_stop_signal: "SIGTERM"
```

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

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

roles:
- role: robertdebock.bootstrap
- role: robertdebock.core_dependencies
- role: robertdebock.hashicorp

tasks:
- name: Create /etc/vault-agent directory
ansible.builtin.file:
path: /etc/vault-agent
state: directory
owner: root
group: root
mode: 0755

- name: Place fake approle id and secret
ansible.builtin.copy:
content: "FAKE"
dest: "{{ item }}"
owner: root
group: root
mode: 0644
loop:
- /etc/vault-agent/role_id
- /etc/vault-agent/secret_id

- name: Pleace Vault agent templates
ansible.builtin.copy:
content: "FAKE"
dest: "{{ item }}"
owner: root
group: root
mode: 0644
loop:
- /etc/vault-agent/server.key.ctmpl
- /etc/vault-agent/server.crt.ctmpl
```
