# Ansible NGINX Role
|
|
|
|
This role installs NGINX Open Source, NGINX Plus, or the NGINX Amplify agent on your target host.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** This role is still in active development. There may be unidentified issues and the role variables may change as development continues.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
### NGINX Plus (Optional)
|
|
|
|
If you wish to install NGINX Plus using this role, you will need to obtain an NGINX Plus license beforehand. _You do not need to do anything beforehand if you want to install NGINX OSS._
|
|
|
|
### Ansible
|
|
|
|
* This role is developed and tested with [maintained](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/reference_appendices/release_and_maintenance.html) versions of Ansible core (above `2.11`).
|
|
* When using Ansible core, you will also need to install the following collections:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
---
|
|
collections:
|
|
- name: community.general
|
|
version: 3.8.0
|
|
- name: ansible.posix
|
|
version: 1.3.0
|
|
- name: community.docker # Only required if you plan to use Molecule (see below)
|
|
version: 2.0.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note:** You can alternatively install the Ansible community distribution (what is known as the "old" Ansible) if you don't want to manage individual collections.
|
|
* You will need to run this role as a root user using Ansible's `become` parameter. Make sure you have set up the appropriate permissions on your target hosts.
|
|
* Instructions on how to install Ansible can be found in the [Ansible website](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html#upgrading-ansible-from-version-2-9-and-older-to-version-2-10-or-later).
|
|
|
|
### Jinja2
|
|
|
|
* This role uses Jinja2 templates. Ansible core installs Jinja2 by default, but depending on your install and/or upgrade path, you might be running an outdated version of Jinja2. The minimum version of Jinja2 required for the role to properly function is `2.11`.
|
|
* Instructions on how to install Jinja2 can be found in the [Jinja2 website](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/2.11.x/intro/#installation).
|
|
|
|
### Molecule (Optional)
|
|
|
|
* Molecule is used to test the various functionalities of the role. The recommended version of Molecule to test this role is `3.3`.
|
|
* Instructions on how to install Molecule can be found in the [Molecule website](https://molecule.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html). _You will also need to install the Molecule Docker driver._
|
|
* To run the NGINX Plus Molecule tests, you must copy your NGINX Plus license to the role's [`files/license`](https://github.com/nginxinc/ansible-role-nginx/blob/main/files/license/) folder.
|
|
|
|
You can alternatively add your NGINX Plus repository certificate and key to the local environment. Run the following commands to export these files as base64-encoded variables and execute the Molecule tests:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export NGINX_CRT=$( cat <path to your certificate file> | base64 )
|
|
export NGINX_KEY=$( cat <path to your key file> | base64 )
|
|
molecule test -s plus
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### Ansible Galaxy
|
|
|
|
Use `ansible-galaxy install nginxinc.nginx` to install the latest stable release of the role on your system. Alternatively, if you have already installed the role, use `ansible-galaxy install -f nginxinc.nginx` to update the role to the latest release.
|
|
|
|
### Git
|
|
|
|
Use `git clone https://github.com/nginxinc/ansible-role-nginx.git` to pull the latest edge commit of the role from GitHub.
|
|
|
|
