Get Docker

Step through the getting started guide to install docker (note that you'll need docker toolbox if you don't have windows 10) here:

https://docs.docker.com/engine/getstarted/

This guide will also walk you through some basic docker commands and have you run a hello world docker image.

Building and using this image

Pull this repo. Run docker build to create the image. This will take a few minutes to complete. -t tells docker to give the finished image a name for ease of use.

docker build -t ansible-dev .

You should now have an image called 'ansible-dev' that you can work with. Verify this with docker images:

$ docker images
REPOSITORY          TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             VIRTUAL SIZE
ansible-dev         latest              68dd3ba11803        9 seconds ago       472.1 MB

This image will now be a basic environment that you can launch whenever you want to run ansible.

docker run --rm -it -v `pwd`:/working ansible-dev

Now go into your working directory and you're all set.

The /working directory is a mount inside of the docker container of the directory from which the container was started.

➜  docker run --rm -it -v `pwd`:/working ansible-dev

Remember, you may wish to specify your host file with -i

Done!
