Dependencies

This role does not have a hard dependency on any other role to deploy but rundeck does require java to be installed (decoupled on the communities request). smola's ansible-java-role is a good choice with the following configuration:

• Debian: Ensure java_packages has a debian java package in it, i.e. openjdk-7-jre-headless
• RedHat: Ensure java_packages has a debian java package in it, i.e. java-1.7.0-openjdk, had to adjust role to include RedHat.yml in main.yml to work.

If you choose to use a database then please ensure it is installed before executing this role. The following roles have been used to create databases:

• Ubuntu 12.04 & 14.04/PostgreSQL: postgresql
• Centos 6.5 & 7.0/PostgreSQL: postgresql-on-el6 (with tweeks, watch this space for updates)
