Ansible Role: EPEL Repository

Installs the EPEL repository (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) for RHEL/CentOS.

Requirements

This role only is needed/runs on RHEL and its derivatives.

Role Variables

Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):

epel_repo_url: "https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}.noarch.rpm" epel_repo_gpg_key_url: "/etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}"

The EPEL repo URL and GPG key URL. Generally, these should not be changed, but if this role is out of date, or if you need a very specific version, these can both be overridden.

Dependencies

None.
