Ansible 2.9 (with Mitogen)

Running Ansible 2.9.9

This is my preferred install variant mainly due to the performance improvements that Mitogen awards you. You can read more about it inside the Mitogen for Ansible documentation.

latest, alpine, 2.9-alpine, 2.8-alpine-3.11 Dockerfile
2.7-alpine-3.10 Dockerfile
ubuntu, 2.9-ubuntu, 2.9-ubuntu-18.04 Dockerfile

Ansible 2.8 (with Mitogen)

Running Ansible 2.8.12

2.8-alpine-3.11 Dockerfile
2.7-alpine-3.10 Dockerfile
2.8-ubuntu, 2.8-ubuntu-18.04 Dockerfile
ubuntu-16.04, 2.8-ubuntu-16.04 Dockerfile
2.8-stretch Dockerfile
2.8-stretch-slim Dockerfile
2.8-centos, 2.8-centos-7 Dockerfile

To leverage Mitogen to accelerate your playbook runs, add this to your ansible.cfg:

@TODO This needs updating, please investigate in your container the location of ansible_mitogen.

strategy_plugins = /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible_mitogen/plugins/strategy
strategy = mitogen_linear

Running

**You will likely need to mount required directories into your container to make it run (or build on top of what is here).

Simple

$~   docker run --rm -it willhallonline/ansible:2.9-alpine /bin/sh

Mount local directory and ssh key

$~  docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/ansible -v ~/.ssh/id_rsa:/root/id_rsa willhallonline/ansible:2.9-alpine /bin/sh

Injecting commands

$~  docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/ansible -v ~/.ssh/id_rsa:/root/id_rsa willhallonline/ansible:2.9-alpine ansible-playbook playbook.yml

Bash Alias

You can put these inside your dotfiles (~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc to make handy aliases).

alias docker-ansible-cli='docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/ansible -v ~/.ssh/id_rsa:/root/.ssh/id_rsa --workdir=/ansible willhallonline/ansible:2.9-alpine /bin/sh'
alias docker-ansible-cmd='docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/ansible -v ~/.ssh/id_rsa:/root/.ssh/id_rsa --workdir=/ansible willhallonline/ansible:2.9-alpine '

use with:

$~  docker-ansible-cli ansible-playbook -u playbook.yml
