Ansible package with required python modules. No need to install, just download, unpack and use. The main idea of this package is to run Ansible playbooks on local machine

Version: 0.3.1

You just need to download latest version of portable-ansible tarball (.tar.bz2) from Releases page https://github.com/ownport/portable-ansible/releases and unpack the files

$ wget https://github.com/ownport/portable-ansible/releases/download/v0.3.0/portable-ansible-v0.3.0-py2.tar.bz2 -O ansible.tar.bz2
$ tar -xjf ansible.tar.bz2
$ python ansible localhost -m ping
 [WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available

localhost | SUCCESS => {
    "changed": false,
    "ping": "pong"
}

If you need to run ansible playbooks, after having extracted the tarball contents:

$ ln -s ansible ansible-playbook
$ python ansible-playbook playbook.yml

Install python packages into ansible/extras directory

pip install -t ansible/extras <package>

or

pip install -t ansible/extras -r requirements.txt

Instead of installing the python packages to ansible/extras, you can also install them in user directory to be available for ansible:

pip install --user -r requirements.txt

make aliases to portable ansible directory. In the examples below portable-ansible installed in /opt directory

ln -s /opt/ansible /opt/ansible-playbook

python3 /opt/ansible-playbook -i 172.17.0.2,  ~/playbooks/remote-via-ssh-key.yaml

python3 /opt/ansible-playbook -i 172.17.0.2, -c paramiko ~/playbooks/remote-via-username-and-password.yaml  --ask-pass

to create tarball with required packages just run

For python2

$ make tarball-py2

For python3

$ make tarball-py3

For both python versions

$ make tarballs
