Ansible Galaxy enabled role to wait for a host to boot, then make sure any low-level Ansible or system requirements are taken care of. Finally, it makes an explicit call to the setup module for fact-gathering.

Same as stock Ansible 2.3+.

accessible_cmd: The command, when executed successfully on the subject-host, signals availability and readiness. Defaults to /bin/true.

accessible_retries: The number of times to retry accessible_cmd before failing subject host. Also see accessible_delay below. Defaults to 20.

accessible_delay: The number of seconds to wait between each retry of accessible_cmd. Defaults to 5.

accessible_ansible_deps: Lookup table of Ansible dependency installation commands per OS and major version. The lookup is based upon the contents of /etc/os-release If no match is found, the default key is used.

accessible_gather_subset: After any dependencies are installed, the setup module will run to gather subject-host facts. This value limits collection to a subset of fact plugins. Defaults to 'network'.

For RHEL systems, this role depends on cevich.subscribed being available (by name).

    - hosts: all
      gather_facts: False
      roles:
        - accessible

Wait for, and make ready, a Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS, or RHEL subject host.
