How to run the ansible playbooks

Start the api server:

# Create a directory for a volume to store settings and a sqlite database
mkdir -p ~/.ara/server

# Start an API server with docker from the image on DockerHub:
docker run --name api-server --detach --tty \
  --volume ~/.ara/server:/opt/ara -p 8000:8000 \
  -e ARA_ALLOWED_HOSTS="['*']" \
  docker.io/recordsansible/ara-api:latest

build the ansible runner container

docker build -t ansible-runner .

Run the main playbook (insert your own user and password values)

docker run --platform linux/amd64 -it \
  -v $(pwd)/ansible:/ansible \
  -e ARA_API_SERVER="http://192.168.50.100:8000" \
  -e ARA_API_CLIENT=http \
  ansible-runner ansible-playbook playbooks/main-playbook.yaml \
