This is after frustrations of having to build endless execution environments to run different things in the different Ansible Automation Platform projects I have undertaken!

In this repo, I build one mother execution environment, that will keep being updated whenever I realize I need something else!

• Base Image is ansible-automation-platform-24/ee-supported-rhel8:latest.

  ** You need to $ podman login registry/redhat.io to have access to this one. Use your usual redhat credentials.

• Ontop I have added these:

  • community.general : I rely on the email module aloooot for sending email notifications real-time as playbooks are running!!

  • awx.awx : I hate clicking and clicking on the AAP GUI to build Organizations, Projects,Job Templates , Workflows etc.. A good Ansible script does that for me! You will need awx.awx

  • f5networks.f5_modules : Needed this in some project to update F5s. I thought, why not add them permanently.

  • infoblox.nios_modules : Some modules I have had a hard time understanding!..But needed them along the way :(

• Checkout the requirements.txt to see the python modules included to support the above modules.

• Used ansible-builder to build the podman image . All this done on an RHEL 8* environment.

• In this project am storing my end image in docker.io and that's where I pull it down whenever I want to use, or update it if I need to.

• This is the base image.

• $ ansible-navigator images ... the pick image number.. and enter ansible collections number to see the collections included.

• See COLLECTIONS.md

Step 1: Configure your environmental variables for the following :

• IMAGE_NAME

Step 2: On your dev environment ensure you are successfully logged into:

• docker.io : $ podman login docker.io
• registry.redhat.io : $ podman login registry.redhat.io

Step 2: $ ./build-exec-env.sh

• Script has the steps to do the image build within different functions.
