Setup Docker
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This role provides a mechanism to install docker automatically within the context of an integration test.
|
|
|
|
For the time being (Apr 2023) it has been tested in Fedora 37 and Ubuntu Jammy.
|
|
|
|
This role was largely based on the `setup_snap` one written by @felixfontein.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Quickstart
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Add the file `meta/main.yml` to your integration test target it it does not yet contain one, and add (or update) the `dependencies` block with `setup_docker`, as in:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
dependencies:
|
|
- setup_docker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In your integration test target, add to the beginning of the `tasks/main.yml` something like (example from `mssql_script`):
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- name: Start container
|
|
community.docker.docker_container:
|
|
name: mssql-test
|
|
image: "mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2019-latest"
|
|
env:
|
|
ACCEPT_EULA: "Y"
|
|
SA_PASSWORD: "{{ mssql_login_password }}"
|
|
MSSQL_PID: Developer
|
|
ports:
|
|
- "{{ mssql_port }}:1433"
|
|
detach: true
|
|
auto_remove: true
|
|
memory: 2200M
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That's it! Your integration test will be using a docker container to support the test.
|
|
|
|
|
|
What it does
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The role will install `docker` on the test target, allowing the test to run a container to support its execution.
|
|
|
|
The installation of the package sends a notification to an Ansible handler that will remove `docker` from the system after the integration test target is done.
|
|
|
|
This role assumes that developers will use the collection `community.docker` to manage the containers used in the test. To support that assumption, this role will install the `requests` package in the Python runtime environment used, usually a *virtualenv* used for the test. That package is **not removed** from that environment after the test.
|
|
|
|
The most common use case is to use `community.docker.docker_container` to start a container, as in the example above. It is likely that `community.docker.docker_compose` can be used as well, although this has **not been tested** yet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recommendations
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
* Don't forget to publish the service ports when starting the container
|
|
* Take into consideration that the services inside the container will take a while to get started. Use both/either `ansible.builtin.wait_for` to check for the availability of the network port and/or `retries` on the first task effectively using those services
|
|
* As a precautionary measure, start using the role in a test that is marked either `disabled` or `unsupported`, and move forward from there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Known Issues & Caveats
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
* Support only Ubuntu and Fedora, having been tested in Ubuntu Jammy and Fedora 37, respectively
|
|
* Lack mechanism to choose or constraint the `docker` version to be used
|
|
* Lack option to prevent `docker` from being removed at the end of the integration test
