issmirnov / ansible-role-provision

Snapshot of my internal ansible provision repo.

Ansible Provision role

Note: This is a sanitized snapshot of my internal repo, so will be updated less frequently than my private version.

Overview

This playbook is enough to completely provision a brand new linux or MacOS machine to look exactly like the rest of my fleet. Paired with the issmirnov.dotfiles role the only indication that this is a new machine is a different hostname.

Summary of changes:

• Linux
  • Installs a ton of useful CLI tools, tweaks bootup speed
• MacOS
  • Installs common utils
  • Logs in to mac app store, installs apps
  • Deploys homebrew, installs apps
  • Tweaks system settings via osx.sh for sane dev defaults
  • Uploads preferences for apps.
  • Moves Dock to the left, deletes all bloatware apps, pins chrome and terminal
