Easily install and configure your Ubuntu Desktop installation.

In order to run the the following installation process and script you need to have :

• access to a shell
• unzip
• wget
• Ansible 2.8+ (we handled the installation via the run.sh script)

wget -O installer.zip https://github.com/jygastaud/ubuntu-installer/archive/<branch>.zip
unzip installer
cd ubuntu-installer-<branch>
cp default.config.yml config.yml

and edit the config.yml file (you can keep only the line you change in that file).

Then

./run.sh

./run.sh --ansible

You can use Ansible tag to run only some part of that playbook.

Examples:

• Install only packages

ansible-playbook playbook.yml -i hosts --user=$(whoami) -e "my_user=$(whoami)" --ask-become-pass --tag packages

• Install only git

ansible-playbook playbook.yml -i hosts --user=$(whoami) -e "my_user=$(whoami)" --ask-become-pass --tag git

• Install all dev-tools

ansible-playbook playbook.yml -i hosts --user=$(whoami) -e "my_user=$(whoami)" --ask-become-pass --tag dev-tools
