greetd

Ansible Role - greetd

Installs and configures the greetd login manager.

The role also supports configuring greetd-gtkgreet and a custom CSS config for it. Note the additional requirements described below though.

Example Playbook

As this role is tested via Molecule one can use that playbook as a starting point:

---

- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  gather_facts: true

  roles:
    - role: greetd

Role Variables

The default variables are defined in defaults/main.yml:

# Command to run at start
greetd_config_command: 'agreety --cmd $SHELL'

# The user to run the command as
greetd_config_user: greeter

# The VT to run the greeter on. Can be "next", "current" or a number
# designating the VT (must be a string).
greetd_config_vt: '1'

# List of environments to configure for selection at login
greetd_environments:
  - wayfire

# Custom CSS configuration for greetd-gtkgreet (multiline string)
greetd_gtkgreet_css: ''

# List of greetd related packages to install
greetd_packages:
  - greetd
  - greetd-gtkgreet

Another option is to use ansible-doc to read the argument specification:

ansible-doc --type role -r roles -e main greetd

Requirements

This role has no additional role requirements but depends on the greetd package(s) being pre-built and available through a repository (which is the case for Arch Linux).
