Shell provisioning script to bootstrap Ansible from within a Vagrant VM running on any OS.
This is inspired and based on Jeff Geerlings JJG-Ansible-Windows.
This script can run Ansible playbooks from within the Linux VM through Vagrant.
Read more about other techniques for using Ansible within a Windows environment, on Server Check.in: Running Ansible within Windows.
Find out how to run ansible directly from Host OS: Vagrant Provisioning with ansible.
An example Vagrantfile is added, you could either edit it or replace it with your own Vagrantfile.
If you choose to replace the Vagrantfile, be sure to include the shell provisioner installing ansible on the guest and run the playbook, like in code below:
# Provisioning configuration for shell script.
config.vm.provision "shell" do |sh|
sh.path = "ansible.sh"
sh.args = "provisioning/playbook.yml provisioning/inventory"
end The provisiong Files are located inside the provisioning Folder.
The example playbook runs once and creates a file ansible_facts.txt inside /root/ folder containing the VM facts.
The file is created by running ansible from inside an ansible playbook.
