This Ansible project helps to download and verify Tor Browser Bundle (TBB) in GNU/Linux.

The idea is the same as Tor Browser Launcher (see advice below).

Requirements

Ansible 1.6 or higher.

Project variables

Add or modify the following variable in playbook.yml

Optional variables (not included in roles/ansible-role-tbb/defaults/main.yml):

• tbb_older_dir: path of an older version of TBB to import the bookmarks from. It will be used when import_settings variable is true (default). For instance: tbb_older_dir: /home/user/.tbb/tbb/tor-browser-linux32-3.6.1_en-US
• tor_control_pw: password for tor control port. It will be used when use_system_tor variale is true default)

Variables you might want to change (defined in roles/ansible-role-tbb/defaults/main.yml:

# the user for which tbb will be installed
tbb_user: user

## if tor is already running, this variable will download everything through Tor
## TODO: detect whether tor is already running
use_tor: true

## to use the system tor instead of the tbb tor
use_system_tor: true

## in case of running system tor with a different socks port to the default
tor_socks_port: 9050
## in case of running system tor with a different control port to the default
tor_control_port: 9051
## to create the hashed tor control password and modify torrc with it.
## it requires sudo password.
configure_torrc: false

## to import some settings (currently bookmarks) from other tbb installation 
import_settings: true

## to install the package dependencies. It will require sudo password
## If they are not already installed and this variable is false, everythinhg will fail
install_deps: false
