acromedia / ansible-role-deploy-from-repo

Generic tool to clone + upload + make/install things from private repositories

Ansible role: Deploy from Repo

Clone the specified git repository locally, push its contents up to a temp directory on the server, and then run the specified command in the uploaded folder.

Intended for use with private repos that have a make install process.

Requirements

Obviously, the operator of the playbook must have read access to the specified repo.

As of this writing, this role only works from a linux workstation because of the tempfile task.

Role Variables

• repo_src

  The URL of the private repository.

• repo_subdir

  If specified, only the files inside this dir will be pushed to the remote host.

• make_cmd

  Only needed if you would run something other than make -s install.

Dependencies
