ansible2.9

Ansible2.9:v1 uses Python 2 and and Ansible2.9:v2/latest uses Python 3. For working with Python3 on Ubuntu 18.04, you need to install Ansible with pip3, also pip3 does not add the directory /etc/ansible, so you need to manually create it and add files to it.To run the container just write docker run -id nikoolayy1/ansible2.9: bash. Then see it with docker ps and enter it with docker exec -it /bin/bash. The DockerFile for Ansible2.9:v1 is: FROM ubuntu:18.04 ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive ENV TZ=Europe/Sofia RUN apt update && apt install -y software-properties-common && apt-add-repository --yes --update ppa:ansible/ansible && apt install -y software-properties-common vim nano ansible python3-pip RUN pip3 install --upgrade pip && pip3 install --no-cache-dir paramiko && pip3 install --no-cache-dir f5-sdk && ansible-galaxy collection install f5networks.f5_modules COPY ansible.cfg /etc/ansible/ COPY hosts /etc/ansible/ The DockerFile for Ansible2.9:v2/latest is: FROM ubuntu:18.04 ARG DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive ENV TZ=Europe/Sofia RUN apt update && apt install -y software-properties-common && apt-add-repository --yes --update ppa:ansible/ansible && apt install -y software-properties-common vim nano python3-pip RUN pip3 install --upgrade pip && pip3 install --no-cache-dir ansible && pip3 install --no-cache-dir paramiko && pip3 install --no-cache-dir f5-sdk && ansible-galaxy collection install f5networks.f5_modules RUN mkdir /etc/ansible RUN mkdir /etc/ansible/roles COPY ansible.cfg /etc/ansible/ COPY hosts /etc/ansible/ I used Ubuntu 18.04, because there is a bug when trying to install Ansible on 20.04. The Ansible version is 2.9 and I also installed paramiko for managing Cisco and some F5 Big-IP modules. I added some config to the hosts file, so that you can test the container as it will connect to the Cisco dCloud free lab router. The test command is: ansible routers -m ios_command -a "commands='show ip int brief'"
