No dependencies.

||
|
|
## Example Playbook
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See the [test playbook](tests/test.yml)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Testing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `tests` directory contains acceptance tests for this role in the form of a Vagrant environment. The directory `tests/roles/samba` is a symbolic link that should point to the root of this project in order to work. To create it, do
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```ShellSession
|
||
|
|
$ cd tests/
|
||
|
|
$ mkdir roles
|
||
|
|
$ ln -frs ../../PROJECT_DIR roles/samba
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You may want to change the base box into one that you like. The current one is based on Box-Cutter's [CentOS Packer template](https://github.com/boxcutter/centos).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The playbook [`test.yml`](tests/test.yml) applies the role to a VM, setting role variables.

Jeff Geerling also has written a [Samba role for EL](https://galaxy.ansible.com/list#/roles/438), but at the time of writing this, it is very basic.
