GitHub	GitLab	Downloads	Version

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: true
  gather_facts: true

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.apt_repository
      apt_repositories:
        - repo: "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main"

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

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: false

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap

  tasks:
    - name: Install apt-transport-https ca-certificates
      ansible.builtin.package:
        name: "{{ item }}"
      loop:
        - apt-transport-https
        - ca-certificates

    - name: Install yarn public key
      ansible.builtin.apt_key:
        url: "https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg"
        validate_certs: false
