Alpine Ansible Execution Environment

This repository provides an alternative to the official CentOS-based Ansible Execution Environments. Being based on Alpine, it aims to be more lightweight and runs with a non-root user by default.

ℹ️ About The Project

This project provides container images for Ansible Execution Environments based on Alpine Linux.

Advantages compared to the official EEs built using ansible-builder:

• non-root user context
• simpler Containerfile
• small Container image
• easy to use without ansible-runner
• easy to tweak what pip packages and collections you want to include

✈️ Getting Started

ansible-navigator collections -m interactive # by default we use the stdout mode in the config

Generally make a hosts file to a remote host you already have ssh'd into and also setup an example playbook where you use the ping module. Run it with: ansible-navigator run test-playbook.yml and enjoy the output!

📖 Usage

See the ansible-navigator.yml file! It's configured that you can use your own private keys from your host easily and not leave logging/artefacts behind.
