# Package Manager Installation 📦
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
This Ansible role installs and updates packages using `pkgmgr` on Arch Linux systems. It provides a unified interface for package installation and update management, ensuring consistent deployment across environments.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The role abstracts package management operations using `pkgmgr`. It ensures the package manager itself is updated once per run and provides idempotent installation and update routines for specified packages.
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this role is to automate the installation and update process for CyMaIS-related applications or other managed packages using `pkgmgr`. It simplifies package handling and enforces best practices for package deployment in automated environments.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Automatic pkgmgr Update:** Ensures the package manager is always up-to-date.
|
|
- **Idempotent Package Installation:** Only installs packages when necessary.
|
|
- **Flexible Notification:** Supports handler notification for post-install actions (e.g., Docker Compose builds).
|
|
- **Optional Privilege Escalation:** Controlled via the `pkgmgr_become` variable (default: `true`).
|
|
|
