Ansible Role: Googler, google from the terminal

An Ansible Role that installs Googler on Linux.

Requirements

None.

Role Variables

Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):

If no version is specified, the latest version will be installed. Available Googler releases.

googler_version: 4.3.2

If no prefix is specified for the bin/googler binary placing, /usr/local is used.

googler_prefix_dir: $HOME/.local

If the directory for downloading and extracting the release archive is not specified, /tmp is used.

googler_download_dir: $HOME/Downloads

Search keyword and option completion scripts for Bash, Fish and Zsh can be copied to the specified locations.
Paths from which autocompletions are usually loaded automatically:

googler_bash_completions_dir: /etc/bash_completion.d
googler_fish_completions_dir: /etc/fish/completions
googler_zsh_completions_dir: /usr/share/zsh/functions/Completion/Zsh

You can also may want to use googler @t add-on, in which case specify where to copy the google_at file with convenient aliases:

googler_at_aliases_dir: $HOME/.googler

To source it after installation, run:

$ source $HOME/.googler/google_at

List of user environment files to add conditional export to the system PATH of a directory with the app binary.
Only existing files with write access for the current ansible_user will be processed.
If not specified, empty list is used.

googler_env_files_to_modify:
  - $HOME/.profile
  - $HOME/.bashrc
  - $HOME/.zshenv

NOTE: By default, the base tasks of a role are skipped if the application is already installed in the desired
bin directory and no version upgrade is required.
If you want to add a conditional export to the system PATH of a directory with the app binary, or copy completion scripts,
after the Playbook has already been run once, you can force the launch base role tasks by defining the update_apps variable
and adding googler to the list. For example:

$ ansible-playbook main.yaml -e "update_apps=[googler]"

This approach is also used to force an update to the latest available release.

Dependencies

make, Python 3.6 or later.
