Prepare your system to be managed by Ansible.

This example is taken from molecule/default/playbook.yml:

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

  roles:
    - robertdebock.bootstrap

The machine you are running this on, may need to be prepared. Tests have been done on machines prepared by this playbook:

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  gather_facts: no
  become: yes
  serial: 30%

  roles:

  tasks:
    - name: test connection
      ping:

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

These variables are set in defaults/main.yml:

---
# defaults file for bootstrap

# The user to use to connect to machines.
bootstrap_user: root

# Installed software to support modules flagged as "preview" (i.e. mysql_db).
# "yes", "no" or unset are valid.
bootstrap_preview: yes

# Do you want to wait for the host to be available?
bootstrap_wait_for_host: no

# The number of seconds you want to wait during connection test before failing.
bootstrap_timeout: 3

• Access to a repository containing packages, likely on the internet.
• A recent version of Ansible. (Tests run on the last 3 release of Ansible.)

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