[ghcr.io/]kineticcafe/ansible: Ansible in Docker

This is a simple Docker container that contains Ansible. It has been created so that it's easier to work with ansible-playbook without going through the effort of installing it on various systems.

The image is based on Debian Bookworm (slim) and includes:

  • Ansible 10.5.0
  • Python 3.13

These images can be pulled either from Docker Hub (kineticcafe/ansible:6.0) or the GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io/kineticcafe/ansible:6.0).

Support

Tests have been made on Ubuntu 18 and macOS 13 (Apple Silicon).

Because of recent changes to cryptographic packages in Python, support for linux/arm/v7 has been dropped.

kineticcafe-ansible script Commands

The kineticcafe-ansible script is recommended for running everything as it manages environment variable configuration for each run. The kineticcafe-ansible script will pull from ghcr.io/kineticcafe/ansible:6.0 by default; this can be overridden by using $IMAGE:

$ IMAGE=kineticcafe/ansible:latest ./kineticcafe-ansible --version

Installing kineticcafe-ansible

kineticcafe-ansible can be installed with symlinks using the install script:

curl -sSL --fail \
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KineticCafe/docker-ansible/main/install |
  bash -s -- ~/.local/bin

Replace ~/.local/bin with your preferred binary directory.

By default, it will download kineticcafe-ansible from GitHub and install it in the provided TARGET and make symbolic links for the following Ansible commands: ansible, ansible-community, ansible-config, ansible-connection, ansible-console, ansible-doc, ansible-galaxy, ansible-inventory, ansible-playbook, ansible-pull, ansible-test, and ansible-vault. Symbolic link creation will not overwrite files or symbolic links to locations other than TARGET/kineticcafe-ansible.

--no-symlinks (-S) may be specified to skip symbolic link creation entirely.

--force (-f) may be specified to install kineticcafe-ansible even if it already exists, and to overwrite files and non-TARGET/kineticcafe-ansible symbolic links.

--verbose (-v) will turn on trace output of commands.
