# [Mosh (Mobile shell) Role for Ansible](https://github.com/jnv/ansible-role-mosh)
Installs [Mosh](http://mosh.mit.edu/) native package on Debian (wheezy), Ubuntu (precise and newer), OpenSuSE (12.3+), and Fedora (16+).
Optional installation from backports repository on Ubuntu and Debian is also supported.
## Usage
Install via [Galaxy](https://galaxy.ansibleworks.com/):
```
ansible-galaxy install jnv.mosh
```
In your playbook:
```yaml
- hosts: all
roles:
# ...
- jnv.mosh
```
And then connect the same way as with SSH, but replace `ssh` with `mosh`:
```
mosh user@host
```
### Install Mosh 1.2 from Backports (Debian, Ubuntu)
Ubuntu Precise (12.04) provides 1.1 version of Mosh, but the newer version is available from backports repository. To install:
1. Enable backports repository; you can use [debian-backports role](https://galaxy.ansibleworks.com/list#/roles/224):
```
ansible-galaxy install jnv.debian-backports
```
2. Enable `mosh_debian_use_backports` variable.
For example:
```yaml
- hosts: all
roles:
- jnv.debian-backports
- { role: jnv.mosh, mosh_debian_use_backports: yes}
```
## Variables
- `mosh_pkg` (default: `mosh`): Mosh package name, usually just on most distributions
- `mosh_debian_use_backports` (default: `no`): Whether the backports version should be installed; see [above](#install-mosh-12-from-backports-debian-ubuntu).
- `mosh_debian_backports_target` (default: `{{ansible_distribution_release}}-backports`): Value of the `default_release` to use with [apt module](http://docs.ansible.com/apt_module.html) when `mosh_debian_use_backports` is enabled.
+ The default resolves to, for example, `precise-backports`
