This role installs yara.
Role has no external dependencies. Required build packages can be managed through yara_build_deps_install and yara_build_deps_postrm.
Most are self-explanatory, like yara_version, but I'll add notes on the not-so-evident ones:
Installation:
yara_install_method: At the moment only source is supported, but in the future I may add support for packages (for Windows, these are provided).
yara_build_deps_postrm: Setting to true removes build time dependencies. This may be desired on a server that uses Yara and doesn't want to leave gcc available.
yara_src_dest_postrm: Removes source tree after successful build and installation. Setting to true breaks idempotency.
yara_build_prefix: It's /usr/local by default, so yara will be at /usr/local/bin/yara. Remember to have that directory in $PATH or change prefix to /usr
Connectivity
yara_src_proxy: Sets a proxy for get_url for connectivity-restricted scenarios. See Ansible documentation for more information.
yara_src_url: If requirements are pulling sources from a private network, this should be updated.
yara_src_checksum: If version/url is updated, this should be updated too.
None.
