Ansible Docker Compose

Ansible role to install docker and docker-compose and copy docker-compose projects.

It can also manage (bring up and pull images) projects.

The role does not install docker-compose standalone, but only the docker-compose plugin for the docker cli. So use docker compose ... instead of docker-compose ...

Requirements

• debian

Role Variables

The role supports the following variables

Name	Required/Default	Description
docker_compose_docker_users	[]	A list of users that should be added to the docker group
docker_compose_target_dir	/opt/docker-compose	The directory where the docker compose projects should be copied to.
docker_compose_project_folders_dir	✔️	The directory of docker-compose projects (folders) to copy.
docker_compose_managed_projects	[]	The names of docker-compose projects which should be managed.

Example

The following example playbook assumes that you cloned this role to roles/docker-compose (i.e. the name of the role is docker-compose instead of docker-compose) and that you have the following structure in your files folder:

files/
└── docker-composes
    └── docker01
        ├── aThirdProject
        │   └── docker-compose.yml
        ├── someOtherProject
        │   └── docker-compose.yml
        └── someProject
            └── docker-compose.yml

- hosts: kube01
  roles:
    - role: docker-compose
      docker_compose_docker_users:
        - admin
        - myOtherUser
      docker_compose_project_folders_dir: "docker-composes/docker01"
      docker_compose_managed_projects:
        - someProject
