- Comment on From Docker with Ansible to k3s: I don't get it... 2 weeks ago:
Ive actually been personally moving away from kubernetes for this kind of deployment and I am a big fan of using ansible to deploy containers using podman systemd units, you have a series of systemd .container files like the one below
[Unit] Description=Loki [Container] Image=docker.io/grafana/loki:3.4.1 # Use volume and network defined below Volume=/mnt/loki-config:/mnt/config Volume=loki-tmp:/tmp/loki PublishPort=3100:3100 AutoUpdate=registry [Service] Restart=always TimeoutStartSec=900 [Install] # Start by default on boot WantedBy=multi-user.target default.target
You use ansible to write these into your /etc/containers/systemd/ folder. Example the file above gets written as /etc/containers/systemd/loki.container.
Your ansible script will then call daemon-reload and then you can systemctl start loki for example

The use I have is that I have something deployed in compose right now that I’d like to scale up on the box since i have the capacity for it, but dont want to deal with a full kube setup or the politic
