Using this project

This project is tested for compatibility with the demo.redhat.com Product Demos Sandbox lab environment. To use with other Ansible Controller installations, review the prerequisite documentation.

NOTE: demo.redhat.com is available to Red Hat Associates and Partners with a valid account.

  1. First you must create a credential for Automation Hub to successfully sync collections used by this project.

    1. In the Credentials section of the Controller UI, add a new Credential called Automation Hub with the type Ansible Galaxy/Automation Hub API Token

    2. You can obtain a token here. This page will also provide the Server URL and Auth Server URL.

    3. Next, click on Organizations and edit the Default organization. Add your Automation Hub credential to the Galaxy Credentials section. Don't forget to click Save!!

      You can also use an execution environment for disconnected environments. To do this, you must disable collection downloads in the Controller. This can be done in Settings > Job Settings. This setting prevents the controller from downloading collections listed in the collections/requirements.yml file.

  2. If it is not already created for you, add an Execution Environment called product-demos

    • Name: product-demos
    • Image: quay.io/acme_corp/product-demos-ee:latest
    • Pull: Only pull the image if not present before running
  3. If it is not already created for you, create a Project called Ansible official demo project with this repo as a source. NOTE: if you are using a fork, be sure that you have the correct URL. Update the project.

  4. Finally, Create a Job Template called Setup with the following configuration:

    • Name: Setup

    • Inventory: Demo Inventory

    • Exec Env: product-demos

    • Playbook: setup_demo.yml

    • Credentials:

      • Type: Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform
      • Name: Controller Credential
    • Extra vars:

       demo: <linux or windows or cloud or network>
