docker-compose-target

Ansible role to deploy a local docker-compose project to a remote host, without needing the remote engine to listen on a TCP port.

Instead of contacting the remote engine by means of its TCP port, this role copies over your docker-compose project directory and deploys it from the remote machine itself. It is functionally equvalent to executing docker-compose up on the remote host.

Requirements

The docker engine must be installed on the remote host, and should be listening on a unix-domain socket (default settings).

Role variables

• project: the path to your docker-compose project.
• dct_recreate: if some files of your docker-compose project change, they will be transferred to the remote host, but the container rebuild logic might not detect their change. To force a rebuild and redeploy of your projects, use -e { dct_recreate: True } while launching the ansible-playbook program.
• dct_cache_path: the path to which your docker-compose projects will be copied to.
• dct_reminder: if the message reminding you of the dct_create flag annoys you, during the build and deploy task, you can disable it by setting this variable to False.

Example Playbook

- hosts: docker-server.example.com
  roles:
    - { role: mvitale1989.docker-compose-target, project: files/project1  }
    - role: mvitale1989.docker-compose-target
      project: ../../docker-compose-projects/project2
      dct_reminder: False

Dependencies

• docker_service and synchronize ansible modules
