Provisions an Ubuntu 14.04 Docker droplet on Digital Ocean, then runs the most excellent minecraft-server Docker container from itzg. At the end it prints out a debug statement with your IP and voila! - you can connect to it using a Minecraft client.
Note that in order to use Digital Ocean, you will first have to create an account and give your payment info. Servers left up and running will cost you money!

You must set the environment variables with your Digital Ocean api token and region. An example file is included "example-set-creds.sh". You should also either specify the ssh key you already use for an existing droplet or create a new one locally using ssh-keygen so that the defaults set in /vars/digital_ocean/main.yml are accurate. Make sure to specify the private key in your ansible-playbook command, or Ansible won't know how to connect.
Optionally pass in any of the variables provided in the itzg/minecraft docker image.
Optionally if you don't want to use the Digital Ocean-provided Docker Ubuntu image, you can also add in a docker installing role such as https://github.com/angstwad/docker.ubuntu by specifying it in the dependencies for minecraft-container.
