Geek Repo:Geek Repo

Github PK Tool:Github PK Tool

Ansible Role: Homebrew

MIT licensed Galaxy Role Downloads Build Status

Installs Homebrew on MacOS, and configures packages, taps, and cask apps according to supplied variables.

Requirements

None.

Role Variables

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

homebrew_repo: https://github.com/Homebrew/brew

The GitHub repository for Homebrew core.

homebrew_prefix: /usr/local
homebrew_install_path: "{{ homebrew_prefix }}/Homebrew"

The path where Homebrew will be installed (homebrew_prefix is the parent directory). It is recommended you stick to the default, otherwise Homebrew might have some weird issues. If you change this variable, you should also manually create a symlink back to /usr/local so things work as Homebrew expects.

homebrew_brew_bin_path: /usr/local/bin

The path where brew will be installed.

homebrew_installed_packages:
  - ssh-copy-id
  - pv
  - { name: vim, install_options: "with-luajit,override-system-vi" }

Packages you would like to make sure are installed via brew install. You can optionally add flags to the install by setting an install_options property, and if used, you need to explicitly set the name for the package as well. By default, no packages are installed (homebrew_installed_packages: []).

homebrew_uninstalled_packages: []

Packages you would like to make sure are uninstalled.

homebrew_upgrade_all_packages: no

Whether to upgrade homebrew and all packages installed by homebrew. If you prefer to manually update packages via brew commands, leave this set to no.

homebrew_taps:
  - homebrew/core
  - { name: my_company/internal_tap, url: 'https://example.com/path/to/tap.git' }

Taps you would like to make sure Homebrew has tapped.

homebrew_cask_apps:
  - firefox
  - { name: virtualbox, install_options:"debug,appdir=/Applications" }

Apps you would like to have installed via cask. Search for popular apps to see if they're available for install via Cask. Cask will not be used if it is not included in the list of taps in the homebrew_taps variable. You can optionally add flags to the install by setting an install_options property, and if used, you need to explicitly set the name for the package as well. By default, no Cask apps will be installed (homebrew_cask_apps: []).

homebrew_cask_accept_external_apps: true

Default value is false and would result in interruption of further processing of the whole role (and ansible play) in case any app given in homebrew_cask_apps is already installed without cask. Good for a tightly managed system.

Specify as true instead if you prefer to silently continue if any App is already installed without cask. Generally good for a system that is managed with cask / Ansible as well as other install methods (like manually) at the same time.

homebrew_cask_uninstalled_apps:
  - google-chrome

Apps you would like to make sure are uninstalled.

homebrew_cask_appdir: /Applications

Directory where applications installed via cask should be installed.

homebrew_use_brewfile: true

Whether to install via a Brewfile. If so, you will need to install the homebrew/bundle tap, which could be done within homebrew_taps.

homebrew_brewfile_dir: '~'

The directory where your Brewfile is located.

homebrew_clear_cache: false

Set to true to remove the Hombrew cache after any new software is installed.

homebrew_user: "{{ ansible_user_id }}"

The user that you would like to install Homebrew as.

homebrew_group: "{{ ansible_user_gid }}"

The group that you would like to use while installing Homebrew.

homebrew_folders_additional: []

Any additional folders inside homebrew_prefix for which to ensure homebrew user/group ownership.
