inhumantsar/ansible-docker-compose-gitlab

Ansible role to launch GitLab and a CI Runner as a Docker service

docker-compose-gitlab

What?

Creates a local docker-compose based service for GitLab

Why?

Ansible provides a nice wrapper around docker-compose, offering up useful bits like a system service, tests, and supporting actions.

How?

Requirements

• A recent Debian- or RHEL-compatible Linux distribution.
• Python 2.7+ with pip installed.
• At least 2 cores, 4GB RAM, and 50GB of disk space available.

Python modules

This role will dumbly try to install these if not already present. the

• docker-compose >= 1.7.0
• docker >= 2.0
  • DO NOT install docker-py, even if an error message says to.
  • KNOWN ISSUE: The docker Python library has a bug in v2.4.0 which prevents port mapping in docker-compose.

Installation

EL7 example tested on RHEL and CentOS 7.

yum install -y git gcc python-devel openssl-devel && \
  pip install ansible

echo -e “- src: geerlingguy.docker\n- src: inhumantsar.docker-compose-gitlab” > requirements.txt
ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.txt

echo """---
> - hosts: localhost
>   roles:
>     - geerlingguy.docker
>     - inhumantsar.docker-compose-gitlab
> """ > playbook.yml
ansible-playbook playbook.yml

Decommission

This will only remove the Docker Compose service and its containers.

ansible-playbook playbook.yml -e service_state=absent```

ansible-docker-compose-gitlab's Issues

ansible-galaxy: Could not find inhumantsar.docker-compose.gitlab

Hi !

thanks for ansible-docker-compose-gitlab !
While trying to install, I hit the following issue:

bash-5.2$ ansible-galaxy collection install inhumantsar.docker-compose.gitlab
ERROR! Neither the collection requirement entry key 'name', nor 'source' point to a concrete resolvable collection artifact. Also 'name' is not an FQCN. A valid collection name must be in the format <namespace>.<collection>. Please make sure that the namespace and the collection name contain characters from [a-zA-Z0-9_] only.

Could not find inhumantsar.docker-compose.gitlab.

Did not find docker-compose.gitlab at https://galaxy.ansible.com/inhumantsar

Are you able to restore it ?

Better omnibus config parameter

Using that big env var is a bit painful, need a tidy extensible way to define the config.
