osx - problems using Ansible to run docker tasks on OS X -

i trying tell ansible build docker image on os x machine , error get:

$ ansible-playbook main.yml  play [localhost] **************************************************************  gathering facts *************************************************************** ok: [localhost]  task: [build docker image dockerfiles] *********************************** failed: [localhost] => {"changed": false, "failed": true} msg: connectionerror(protocolerror('connection aborted.', error(2, 'no such file or directory')),)  fatal: hosts have failed -- aborting  play recap ********************************************************************            retry, use: --limit @/users/ronny/main.retry  localhost                  : ok=1    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=1 

this main.yml file using:

--- - hosts: localhost   connection: local    tasks:         - name: build docker image dockerfiles           docker_image:             name: testimage             path: test             state: build 

my dockerfile:

# build example docker container image.  busybox  maintainer jeff geerling <geerlingguy@mac.com>  # run command when container starts.  cmd ["/bin/true”]” 

my docker file located in cookbook/test/dockerfile

and main.yml file located in cookbook/main.yml

i'm running on os x.

i totally lost @ point , appreciated.

edit:

in response nathanials request use -vvvv following error:

edit #2

ok, tried doing different. instead of building image, tried start one. after diggin in lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/modules/core/cloud/docker/docker.py noticed in class dockermanager.init around line 558, set few environment variables:

env_host = os.getenv('docker_host') env_docker_verify = os.getenv('docker_tls_verify') env_cert_path = os.getenv('docker_cert_path') env_docker_hostname = os.getenv('docker_tls_hostname') 

so spat out values log file, , lo , behold, none of them being set.

then when set them directly in main.yml:

- name: start container       docker:         name: mydata         image: busybox         state: present       environment:         docker_host: tcp://192.168.59.103:2376         docker_tls_verify: 1         docker_cert_path: /users/ronny/.boot2docker/certs/boot2docker-vm         docker_tls_hostname: boot2docker 

i able successful start container!

however, method did not work initial issue, build docker image.

digging further in docker_image.py noticed breaks down around line 188 (i "around" because have logging breaks don't know exact line) has following code:

   images = self.client.images() 

so more digging , see self.client checking out docker_url @ 'unix://var/run/docker.sock'

but on @ link see /var/run/docker.sock not exist on os x, instead 1 reply said that

/var/run/docker.sock not on osx filesystem - docker daemon running inside boot2docker vm - , that's unix socket is.

that serial file not related docker socket.

oyu need talk tcp socket specified in docker_host env.

now tried setting docker_url docker_host url, description modules says:

docker_url: description: - url of docker host issue commands required: false default: unix://var/run/docker.sock aliases: []

but when set docker_host address, got error.

here main.yml

   - name: build docker image dockerfiles            docker_image:             name: testimage  #            path: test             path: /users/ronny/projects/dockers/tutorial/ansibledocker/test             state: build             docker_url: 192.168.59.103:2376 

and here error:

failed: [localhost] => {"changed": false, "failed": true} msg: connectionerror(protocolerror('connection aborted.', badstatusline('\x15\x03\x01\x00\x02\x02\n',)),)  fatal: hosts have failed -- aborting  play recap ********************************************************************            retry, use: --limit @/users/ronny/main.retry  localhost                  : ok=3    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=1 

any ideas?

as workaround can use proxy, "socat-container" routes request tcp address unix socket. take @ page. port 2376 on boot2docker works ipv6 , not ipv4 (i found no way change this, didn't dig deeper problem , don't idea make changes boot2docker vm). added nat translation in virtualbox localhost(ansible inventory localhost)

be careful ansible , docker-py

you need:

• ansible 1.9.2
• docker_api_version: 1.18

works me.
