ansible-yay's Issues

Error if running with disabled root account

I'm trying to run this module and I'm getting this error:

Failed to install package brave-bin, because: sudo: Account or password is expired, reset your password and try again
sudo: unable to change expired password: Authentication token manipulation error
sudo: a password is required

I think this is because my root login is disabled, however I had no problems whatsoever with other tasks using community.general.pacman and become: true.

Re-enabling root fixes the problem.

Any idea on how to fix this?

ansible-galaxy?

hi, did you consider making this available through the ansible-galaxy?

Possible extra options

Maybe some extra arguments possible like the community pacman module?
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/general/pacman_module.html

Would allow you to exclude certain packages, etc.

Debug packages.

Is it normal for this Ansible module to install both the normal (do-agent) and debug (do-agent-debug) variants of a package it builds?

The status changed should be false if a package state equals to present

yay module doesn't keep track of the packages installed, it re-installs them because of the default behavior of yay (see below for the explanation).

I ran this example playbook on Vagrant.

# test.yml
---
- name: Test
  hosts: all
  gather_facts: true
  tasks:
    - name: Install ntp
      pacman:
        name: extra/ntp
        state: present
      become: true

    - name: Install git
      yay:
        name: extra/git
        state: present

1st run:

ansible-playbook -v -i tests/vagrant/vagrant.inventory playbooks/test.yml

I think the solution is to add the --needed tag to the default install command.

--needed Do not reinstall the targets that are already up-to-date.

Could not update package db: Please avoid running yay as root/sudo.

Hi,

if I run the task without become:yes it stops without going any furthe, otherwise I get the error "could not update package db: Please avoid running yay as root/sudo."

If I run yay manually I get the same error if I prepend it with sudo, otherwise I get a prompt [sudo] password for <user>:

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Edit: This is my task:

- name: Update system
  #become: yes
  yay:
    update_cache: yes
    upgrade: yes

pypi package

could you create a pypi package so one could install it via pip install ansible-yay?

Unable to install packages when there's a choice for dependencies

When running this task ansible is unable to continue. To be more specific, it stops when installing perl-image-exiftool.

I think the reason for it to stop is that when installing perl-image-exiftool we need to specify which of the dependencies we want - I don't remember specifically which but I can fetch the names later.

I'm not sure if this can be categorized as an issue once this is like a manual step for installing such packages. Anyhow, I'd appreciate some help on how to work around these cases or, even better, a fix that works around it.

Requesting sudo password

I've just ran for the first time this module.
I'm installing some AUR packages with it, but always that it start the task, it request me my sudo password:

TASK [role : Task name] ***
[sudo] password for darguima:
changed: [localhost]

I don't know if this is the normal behavior, but it would be nice if I doesn't need insert my password, as long as I pass the --ask-become-pass, and if I'm installing something with pacman for example, using the become: true I don't need passwords.

Just because I want run something automatized that don't need human interaction.

Is this a bug, or the normal behavior?
