Ansible : Use Playbook (basic)2022/09/27

 
This is the basic usage of Ansible Playbook.
Playbook is written as YAML file.
[1] For example, create a Playbook that a file exists with the same permission.
ubuntu@dlp:~$
vi playbook_sample.yml
# target host or group
- hosts: 10.0.0.50
  tasks:
  # any task name
  - name: Test Task
    # use file module to set the file state
    file:
      path: /home/ubuntu/test.conf
      state: touch
      owner: ubuntu
      group: ubuntu
      mode: 0600

# run Playbook

ubuntu@dlp:~$
ansible-playbook playbook_sample.yml

[2] For example, create a Playbook that Apache2 is installed and running.
ubuntu@dlp:~$
vi playbook_sample.yml
- hosts: target_servers
  # use privilege (default : root)
  become: yes
  # method to use privilege
  become_method: sudo
  tasks:
  # task settings
  - name: apache2 is installed
    apt:
      name: apache2
      state: present
  - name: apache2 is running and enabled
    service:
      name: apache2
      state: started
      enabled: yes
