Ansible Playbook for Ubuntu

This playbook is made to automate the installation and configuration of an Ubuntu machine for personal use.

Requirements

Install Ansible on your machine:

sudo apt install ansible

Project Structure

The main script is installer.yml which is the entry point for the ansible playbook. This script has four main steps:

1. Install dependencies: installs basic dependencies for Ubuntu, some git tools and configures fish shell and kitty terminal.
2. Download applications: installs desktop applications such as Google Chrome, Jetbrains Toolbox or Postman
3. Setup dotfiles: clones my dotfiles repository, substitutes all the configuration files using stow and sets up pyenv.
4. Wallpaper: sets the wallpaper to a custom one.

Usage

You can run the complete playbook with the following command:

ansible-playbook -K -i inventory.ini installer.yml

Alternatively, you can run each step separately using the tags that are defined in the installer.yml file.

ansible-playbook -K -i inventory.ini installer.yml --tags "tag_name"
