Managed to finally get a working setup, creating an Ansible role with the
following tasks:
---
- name: Install package requirements
ansible.builtin.apt:
pkg:
- curl
- git
- openjdk-19-jdk
state: present
update_cache: yes
- name: Create directory for project in /opt
ansible.builtin.file:
path: "/opt/{{ project_dirname }}"
state: directory
- name: Clone Apache OfBiz Framework repository
ansible.builtin.git:
repo: https://github.com/apache/ofbiz-framework
dest: "/opt/{{ project_dirname }}"
refspec: '+refs/pull/*:refs/heads/*'
- name: Initialize Gradle wrapper
ansible.builtin.command: ./gradle/init-gradle-wrapper.sh
args:
chdir: "/opt/{{ project_dirname }}"
- name: Prepare Apache OfBiz for first use
ansible.builtin.command: ./gradlew cleanAll "ofbiz --load-data
readers=seed,seed-initial" loadAdminUserLogin -PuserLoginId=admin
args:
chdir: "/opt/{{ project_dirname }}"
- name: Copy over security properties
ansible.builtin.copy:
src: "{{ role_path }}/files/security.properties"
dest: "/opt/{{ project_dirname
}}/framework/security/config/security.properties"
mode: '0644'
