role-ranger

[https://github.com/chaos-bodensee/role-ranger/blob/master/LICENSE]() Ansible role to install the ranger file manager on linux. ranger is a console file manager with VI key bindings. More info about ranger is available at github.com/ranger/ranger.

What does this role do?

First we try to install ranger with the default package manager. If this fails, we download the ranger git and compile it by ourself (with python 3).
We also perform a versioncheck that will check if a newer version of this role has been executed on this host before. You can disable it by setting ansible_versionscheck to false

How to use this role

You can either use this role via ansible galaxy or use it directly from this git repository.

ansible galaxy

# install role
ansible-galaxy install do1jlr.ranger
