Example Playbook

This example is taken from molecule/default/converge.yml and is tested on each push, pull request and release.

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

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.squid
      squid_cache_dir: "aufs /var/spool/squid 16000 16 256 max-size=8589934592"
      squid_cache_replacement_policy: heap LFUDA
      squid_maximum_object_size_mb: 256
      squid_acls:
        - name: localnet
          classifier: src
          value: "0.0.0.1-0.255.255.255"
      squid_rules:
        - acl: to_localhost
          decision: deny
        - acl: localnet
          decision: allow
        - acl: localhost
          decision: allow
        - acl: all
          decision: deny

The machine needs to be prepared. In CI this is done using molecule/default/prepare.yml:

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  become: yes
  gather_facts: no

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap
    - role: robertdebock.core_dependencies

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