Example Playbook

This example is taken from molecule/resources/converge.yml and is tested on each push, pull request and release.

---
- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  become: yes
  gather_facts: yes

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.rsyslog

The machine may need to be prepared using molecule/resources/prepare.yml:

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  become: yes
  gather_facts: no

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap

For verification molecule/resources/verify.yml run after the role has been applied.

---
- name: Verify
  hosts: all
  become: yes
  gather_facts: yes

  tasks:
    - name: check if connection still works
      ping:

Also see a full explanation and example on how to use these roles.

Role Variables

These variables are set in defaults/main.yml:

---
# defaults file for rsyslog

# To configure a server to reveice logs, set rsyslog_receiver to yes.
# Not setting this value will not configure the server tor receive logs.
# rsyslog_receiver: yes

# To forward logs to another server, set rsyslog_remote to the hostname or
# the ipaddress of the receiving rsyslog server.
# Not setting this variable will not forward logs.
# rsyslog_remote: server1.example.com

# Set the mode for new directories
rsyslog_dircreatemode: "0700"

# Set the mode for new files
rsyslog_filecreatemode: "0644"

# Set the mods enabled
rsyslog_mods:
  - imuxsock
  - imjournal

# Configure rsyslog minimally (may be in conflict with custom configuration files)
rsyslog_deploy_default_config: True```

## Requirements

- Access to a repository containing packages, likely on the internet.
- A recent version of Ansible. (Tests run on the current, previous and next release of Ansible.)

The following roles can be installed to ensure all requirements are met, using `ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml`:

```yaml
---
- robertdebock.bootstrap

Context

This role is a part of many compatible roles. Have a look at the documentation of these roles for further information.

Here is an overview of related roles: dependencies

Compatibility

This role has been tested on these container images:

container tags
amazon all
alpine all
debian all
el 7, 8
fedora all
opensuse all
ubuntu bionic

The minimum version of Ansible required is 2.8 but tests have been done to:

  • The previous version, on version lower.
  • The current version.
  • The development version.

Exceptions

Some variarations of the build matrix do not work. These are the variations and reasons why the build won't work:

variation reason
archlinux/base target not found: rsyslog

Testing

Unit tests are done on every commit, pull request, release and periodically.

If you find issues, please register them in GitHub

Testing is done using Tox and Molecule:

Tox tests multiple ansible versions. Molecule tests multiple distributions.

To test using the defaults (any installed ansible version, namespace: robertdebock, image: fedora, tag: latest):

molecule test

# Or select a specific image:
image=ubuntu molecule test
# Or select a specific image and a specific tag:
image="debian" tag="stable" tox

Or you can test multiple versions of Ansible, and select images: Tox allows multiple versions of Ansible to be tested. To run the default (namespace: robertdebock, image: fedora, tag: latest) tests:

tox

# To run CentOS (namespace: `robertdebock`, tag: `latest`)
image="centos" tox
# Or customize more:
image="debian" tag="stable" tox
