forger

Ansible based system forger

Important

The master branch can be considered to be archived, work on a better forger takes place on the forger-ng branch.

Testing

Environment

• Set FORGER_SECRETS_DIR environment variable to a directory where you will have the needed secrets defined.

  For example FORGER_SECRETS_DIR=/tmp/secrets/.

  Define those files in the secrets directory:

  • ansible_vault.txt - Key file for Ansible Vault.
  • github_droptix_ssh_ed25519.txt - Key file for personal SSH key.
  • github_askia_ssh_ed25519.txt - Key file for work SSH key.

  The secretes diretory will be read-only mounted in the container here: /etc/forger/secrets/.

Using test_image.sh

To launch a deployment in a test container use ./scripts/test_image.sh.

./scripts/test_image.sh fedora_41

To see all the available testing targets check:

./scripts/test_image.sh

Notes

Somehow the automated Lazy sync run with Ansible is not doing it's thing. At least not entirely. I'm still investigating this bastard as I want LSP to work out of the box after I deployed the Ansible receipe.
