This role automatically configures and installs Singularity from source.

It currently only supports the latest version of Singularity, but will soon support at least the previous version.

This role currently officially supports:

• CentOS 7, CentOS 8
• Debian 9, Debian 10
• Ubuntu 18.04, Ubuntu 20.04

It should also run on Red Hat Enterprise Linux but is untested on it.

Before this role runs, you need to make sure the following dependencies are installed:

Currently you MUST use gantsign.golang to install Golang/Go Runtime.

See this role's molecule/default/converge.yml playbook for an example that works across many different OSes.

Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):

singularity_version: '3.7.0'

In future you will be able to change singularity_version to select which version you want to install, but this doesn't do anything yet.
