robertdebock / ansible-role-java Goto Github PK

Think the title says everything :). I had to set the variable java_default_version to install the appropriate version. If I'm correct the setting for the openjdk variable come from the file vars/main.yml

Sample Playbook

---
- name: Get some delicious coffee
  hosts: all
  become: true

  tasks:
    - name: Bootstrap machine
      include_role: 
        name: galaxy/robertdebock.bootstrap

    - name: Java must be present
      include_role: 
        name: galaxy/robertdebock.java
      vars:
        java_vendor: openjdk
        java_type: jdk
        java_version: "8"

Output

Taken from the target:

vagrant@ubuntu-focal:~$ java --version

ISSUE TYPE

• Feature Idea

SUMMARY

Oracle has released Java 10. Please modify the role to also allow Oracle Java 10. (jdk & jre)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
JAVA_HOME is not set after this role ran.

Describe the solution you'd like
The role should set JAVA_HOME.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Set JAVA_HOME myself.

Additional context
Do you have any thoughts? I could work on a PR, if it helps.

One of the following PRs should be choosen:

• #14
  when a shell script will be used to set variables. This will not set JAVA_HOME for every process and not for all shells.

• #15
  set path to /etc/environment and fix assignment expression ( do not use export command in assignments expressions )
