Workstation Standards: A Programatic Approach Getting Up and Running

Quickstart

⚠️ Currently this playbook is written and tested on Fedora 35. Attempts have been made to make it work with other RedHat-based systems, and it should not be difficult to port roles to other Linux distributions. MRs to this end are welcome!

  1. Clone this repository and CD into it in a terminal
  2. Create a config.yml for any local customizations
  3. python install -r requirements.txt --user
  4. ansible-playbook --ask-become site.yml

Customizations

You can override any specific variables by creating a file in the root of the project called config.yml. Simply use the same syntax as default.config.yml for any variables you wish to override. By default, this file will not be tracked bit git.

Variables

Roles with variables will have the variables exposed in the defauls/main.yml file under the role directory.

For variables that are more likely to need editing, they have been exposed in the default.config.yml file.

Notes

For ease of logic, all applications currently installed with flatpak are lumped together into a single list. This may be refactored in the future.

Ditto with npm global packages.
