podman-nginx

Installs a nginx podman container as system service.

The configuration template is similar to a typical openSUSE installation with virtual hosts being present in vhosts.d. The configuration location by default is /etc/nginx, but can be configured.

Requirements

Basic ansible, no further dependencies or requirements are needed.

Example Playbook

Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:

- hosts: servers
  roles:
     - role: podman-nginx

An extended example

- hosts: all
  roles:
    - role: podman-nginx
      vars:
        - nginx_network: 'podman'
        - nginx_container_ip: '10.88.0.101'
        - nginx_publish: ['0.0.0.0:80:80']
