Raspberry Pi Ansible

Glenn K. Lockwood, August 2017

Introduction

This is an Ansible configuration that configures a fresh Raspbian installation on Raspberry Pi. This is very much a work in progress and not intended to be used by anyone but me.

Bootstrapping on Raspbian

If you want to use these playbooks to make a Raspberry Pi self-configure, install Ansible by doing the following:

# apt-get install ansible
# pip install --user ansible
# ssh-keygen
# ssh-copy-id localhost

You can ensure that Ansible is able to configure using the following:

$ ansible -i hosts all -m ping
$ ansible -i hosts -u pi --sudo-user root all -a "/usr/bin/id -u"

Running the Playbook

Authentication will be an issue since the configuration disables the default user (pi) and adds new privileged users. This means that you will probably have to specify different --sudo-user options depending on how far into the configuration you got. For example, assuming the pi user still exists,

$ ansible-playbook --inventory-file hosts --limit clovermine --ask-sudo-pass --sudo --sudo-user pi site.yml

You will be asked for the sudo password, which is the same as pi's password (which defaults to raspberry). Once the users are set up and pi is no longer a valid user.

$ ansible-playbook -i hosts -l clovermine -K -s -U glock site.yml
