This role enables you to manage python packages on debian-based distributions. It can be used on its own , or be called by other roles the install/remove packages on demand.
Requirements
None.
Role Variables
Available variables are listed below, along with default values. A sample file for the default values is available in default/manage_pip_packages.yml.sample in case you need it for any group_vars or host_vars configuration.
manage_pip_packages_install_prereqs: true # by default, set to true
manage_pip_packages_list: # by default, not defined
- name: nginx
version_constraint: latest # Leaving empty or setting '' will be considered as latest
state: absent
- name: ...
This variable is a list of packages, with their name, desired version and state. version_constraint can be multiple constraints,separated by commas (example: >1.10, >1.10,<1.15,!=1.12,==1.13).
Dependencies
This role has a task that installs its own dependencies located in task/prerequisites.yml, so that you don't need to manage them. This role requires ednxzu.manage_apt_packages to install python3 and pip. If you already installed python and pip, you can skip dependencies by setting manage_pip_packages_install_prereqs to false.
