Installation

These instructions will guide you though installing the ansible-rulebook CLI on your local system. Please ensure you have installed all components listed in the Requirements section before starting the installation process.

Requirements

  • Python >= 3.8
  • Python 3 pip
  • Java development kit >= 17
    • Fedora: java-17-openjdk
    • Ubuntu: openjdk-17-jdk

Installation via pip

1. Ensure the JAVA_HOME environment variable is set if you have multiple Java installations. On Fedora-like systems it should be:

JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk

  1. Install ansible-rulebook and dependencies via pip:

    pip install ansible-rulebook ansible ansible-runner

Note

ansible-rulebook relies on the jpy Python package to communicate with the Java runtime. This package provide wheels for the most common platforms, but not for all. If you are using a platform that is not supported by jpy wheels, you will need to compile it by yourself. Look at the Compiling jpy section for more information.

  1. Install the optional ansible collection for EDA

Installation examples

On Fedora-like systems:

dnf --assumeyes install java-17-openjdk python3-pip
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk
pip3 install ansible ansible-rulebook ansible-runner

On Ubuntu systems:

apt-get --assume-yes install openjdk-17-jdk python3-pip
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64
export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin
pip3 install ansible ansible-rulebook ansible-runner

Compiling jpy

To compile jpy from source at installation time, you will need to install the additional dependencies:

  • maven
  • gcc
  • python-devel package
    • Fedora: python3-devel
    • Ubuntu: python3-dev
  • Environment variable JAVA_HOME set to the path of your Java installation

Then, you can run:

pip install ansible-rulebook --no-binary jpy

Refer to the jpy project for more information.
