Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the role for your Ansible playbook. Once launched, it will install a logrotate server in a Debian system.

Prerequisities

Ansible 2.9.x.x version installed. Inventory destination should be a Debian environment.

For testing purposes, Molecule with Docker as driver.

Installing

Create or add to your roles dependency file (e.g requirements.yml):

- src: idealista.logrotate_role
  version: 2.0.0
  name: logrotate

Install the role with ansible-galaxy command:

ansible-galaxy install -p roles -r requirements.yml -f

Use in a playbook:

---
- hosts: someserver
  roles:
    - { role: logrotate }

Usage

Look to the defaults vars and specific OS related files to see the possible configuration vars. Important note about logrotate configuration currently, only Debian 9 (Stretch) and Debian 10 (Buster) are supported:

• In Debian 9, logrotate is triggered by the cron utility
• In Debian 10, it works as a systemd service triggered with a timer by default.

Testing

$ pipenv sync
$ pipenv run molecule test

Note: Debian10 (Debian Buster) will be used as default linux distro if none is provided.

See molecule.yml to check possible testing platforms.
