ar_linux_sudoers

This role adds password-less sudo for a list of users and groups.

Requirements

• This role uses root to manage sudoers. ansible_user must be able to sudo to root without a password.
• This role uses Ansible magic variables to discover the host distribution type.

Role Variables

All over-writable variables used in this role are defined in defaults/main.yml.

You can override the variables in any standard Ansible-way (e.g. group_vars, host_vars, playbook variables, command-line, etc.).

The variables in this role include:

Name	Description	Type	Default
sudoers	List of users or groups to grant password-less sudo	list	[]

Dependencies

Example Playbook

Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:

• Must include list items in single quotes

- name: PLAY | (2) Role with over-rides
  hosts: servers
  roles:
     - role: rolename
       sudoers: ['test_user', '%test_group']
