This image extends the base Circleci cimg/python:3.10 image with Ansible and commonly required utilities, such as:

Apt

• sshpass
• git

Pip

• Ansible==9.1.0

To use thsi image in your CircleCI workflows, simply specify it as the docker image

jobs:
  run-playbook:
    docker:
      - image: 32bitbradley/cimg-python310-ansible:latest
    environment:
      ANSIBLE_FORCE_COLOR: "True"
      ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING: "False"
    steps:
      - checkout

Urgh, installing pip requirements take such a long time, and for every pipeline run too!

This image is part of a collection of CircleCI images I've built with various utilities pre-installed to save time during pipeline runs, check them out on Dockerhub and Github
