- Is it a good idea to use Ansible to create Containers (instead of using Dockerfile/Containerfile)?

Creating container images with Ansible (using ansible-bender)
Base images NEEDS to have Python installed. You can do this during runs by turning off gather_facts and installing it during playbook run.

Container image manager/rebuilder?
You should definitely look at the absible-bender project. Basically it's Ansible + Buildah.
- Use ansible to provision VM's or containers
- I'm setting up a new machine. Is there something like ansible for automatically installing things on a personal bare metal server?

Finally got around to updating my Homelab Diagram, now with new network hardware and external services!
Ok great. I can totally see that this was a lot of work. I am busy with this now for around a year or so and get my stuff automated step by step, but there is a lot left. But then again I am not doing this exclusively as there are many other interesting things to learn and to improve. Just recently I added docker to the mix instead of only using lxc and now I am in the process of switching to podman and buildah. Check it out, it is really great and you can easily build your own containers with Ansible. ansible-bender

Has anyone run ansible _inside_ a docker container?
take a look at this project: https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-bender
- I need some general guidance with learning path for containers.

Creating container images with Ansible (using ansible-bender)
In the last article, building container images with Ansible was briefly discussed. An external blog article on that very subject was linked to, and if you read it you may have seen a lot of manual steps using Docker- and Buildah-commands. This seems like a lot of boiler plate code just to make container images with Ansible, right? From that idea, ansible-bender was born! Ansible-Bender uses Buildah to build your images, and Podman to handle them (some commands like pushing images, build logs, inspecting images etc. are included into Ansible-Bender). Buildah is a container image builder that does not depend on any external programs, and can build containers for any container runtime. A very big downside is that it's only supported on GNU/Linux-based systems, which is bad news if you are using Mac OS X (or god forbid if you are one of the Windows users, ugh). To combat this issue I made a Docker image that includes Buildah and all dependencies, that can be used to run Ansible-Bender on other platforms. Might be a bit slower than just using it on a GNU/Linux-based system, but beats not being able to use it at all!
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ansible-bender and dockerfiles you can also consider the following projects:
kaniko - Build Container Images In Kubernetes
buildah - A tool that facilitates building OCI images.
rtl88x2bu - rtl88x2bu driver updated for current kernels.
Headphones - Automatic music downloader for SABnzbd
Healthchecks - Open-source cron job and background task monitoring service, written in Python & Django
.emacs.d - My .emacs.d configuration. Even have a Github Actions pipeline :smirk:
Packer - Packer is a tool for creating identical machine images for multiple platforms from a single source configuration.
