In this episode, I show you how to update Raspbian on your Raspberry Pi using both command line and Playbook forms of Ansible.
Ansible CLI
# Upgrade all the server_name servers.
ansible server_name -m apt -a “upgrade=yes update_cache=yes” -b
———————————————-
Ansible Playbook
#name: Basic Update
– hosts: Ansible
become: true
become_user: root
tasks:
– name: Update apt repo and cache
apt: update_cache=yes force_apt_get=yes cache_valid_time=3600
– name: Upgrade modules
apt: upgrade=yes
#
# Manually run this line on specific RPI host
# grep -E “^$(date +%Y-%m-%d).+ (install|upgrade) ” /var/log/dpkg.log |cut -d ” ” -f 3-5
Sample Output
pi@Ansible:/etc/ansible $ ansible-playbook update-basic.yml
