Hello Colin,
The most simple way I guess is just to split your playbook with pre_tasks,
roles and tasks sections. Something similar to:
---
- hosts: all
vars: []
pre_tasks:
- name: create group titled deploy
group: name=deploy state=present
- name: update apt-cache
sudo: yes
apt: update_cache=yes
- name: create deploy user
user: name=deploy group=deploy groups=sudo comment="Deployment User"
home="/home/deploy" shell="/bin/bash"
roles:
- external-rbenv-role
tasks:
- name: Install the kitchen sink
action: apt name={{item}} state=present update_cache=true
sudo: yes
with_items:
- libqtwebkit-dev
- node
- lots of other tasks
post_tasks: []
Regards,
Borys
