bodsch / ansible-glauth-ui

Ansible role to install and configure glauth-ui.

Ansible Role: glauth-ui

Ansible role to install and configure glauth-ui.

If latest is set for glauth_ui_version, the role tries to install the latest release version.
Please use this with caution, as incompatibilities between releases may occur!

The binaries are installed below /usr/local/bin/glauth-ui/${glauth_ui_version} and later linked to /usr/bin. This should make it possible to downgrade relatively safely.

The Prometheus archive is stored on the Ansible controller, unpacked and then the binaries are copied to the target system. The cache directory can be defined via the environment variable CUSTOM_LOCAL_TMP_DIRECTORY. By default it is ${HOME}/.cache/ansible/glauth-ui. If this type of installation is not desired, the download can take place directly on the target system. However, this must be explicitly activated by setting glauth_ui_direct_download to true.

Development, Branches (Git Tags)

The master Branch is my Working Horse includes the "latest, hot shit" and can be complete broken!

If you want to use something stable, please use a Tagged Version!

IMPORTANT

glauth-ui only supports the configuration file and not a database backend!
glauth-ui-light update only users and groups.
All lines after the first [[users]] in glauth configuration file will be updated.
The use of same model structure than glauth V2 allow to keep manual edition of non managed features as
capabilities, loginShell, sshkeys, otpsecret, yubikey, includegroups, ....
Only comments on these lines are lost.

ansible-glauth-ui's Issues

systemctl reload glauth-ui stops service

When I run

systemctl reload glauth-ui`

the service stopped afterwards.

ansible-glauth-ui/templates/init/systemd/glauth-ui.service.j2

Line 15 in 97cc6a6

ExecReload = /bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID

I don't know much about golang, but I cannot find any SIGHUP in glauth-ui-light, so probably this is some copy-paste error from a different service?
