How to use docker__users? about ansible-docker HOT 10 CLOSED

No problem, thanks for reporting back.

from ansible-docker.

If jdoe and sdoe exist on your system before running this role then both of those users will be able to run docker commands without needing root.

If neither user exist on your system before running this role you'll likely get an error because the role doesn't create users for you.

In my case, I do have the user already created, but when I run it, it indicates that the user group-add command was run on zero hosts. Is there something I'm missing here about the intended usecase of this var?

Are you running v1.3.0?

from ansible-docker.

Ansible? I'm on version 2.7.1 of ansible

from ansible-docker.

I mean the Docker role. If you're using anything under v1.3.0 then docker__users won't work because v1.3.0 is when I introduced renaming variables to docker__* instead of docker_*, so if you have a lesser version it's like you're not configuring anything from the role's POV so it thinks it's an empty list.

Ah - I'm on 1.2.0. I assume that's the issue!

I'm in the process now of rewriting documentation which will help prevent issues like this by warning you that you're looking at documentation from the master branch which may be newer than the latest (or any) release.

The version upgrade did it. Thanks!

And thanks for the excellent package!
