Thank you @srijan for your article, I faced an issue during the Install or upgrade docker-compose step
I got this error Destination /usr/local/bin/docker-compose is not writable after some researches about the issue I tried to add become: true to this step and it's worked for me.
so is it working with you without become?

@NurdinDev - I have set become: true in the main file where this task is imported. It's required for all the steps here, not just the compose step.

I got it @srijan, Thank you so much 👍

Nice script, I needed to change the get_url section and added the checksum.

- name: Install or upgrade docker-compose
  become: true
  get_url:
    url: "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/v{{ docker_compose_version }}/docker-compose-linux-x86_64"
    checksum: "sha256:https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/v{{ docker_compose_version }}/docker-compose-linux-x86_64.sha256"
    dest: /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
    mode: 'a+x'
    force: yes
  when: >
    docker_compose_current_version is not defined
    or docker_compose_current_version is version(docker_compose_version, '<')

There are several separate issues with this gist. Failing in clean debian 10.4. Issues found:

1. -name: Install packages using apt
   fails because of update_cache: no

2. "-name: setup-servers : Install or upgrade docker-compose"

fails because:

    docker_compose_current_version is not defined

should be:

- docker_compose_current_version == ""

3. • name: Run and enable docker

fails with:

No module named 'requests'
fatal: [vm01]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to import the required Python library (Docker SDK for Python: docker>=5.0.0 (Python >= 3.6) or docker<5.0.0 (Python 2.7))

because python3-requests also needs to be installed

4. When using docker-compose:

 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'docker' 

@chamalis - thanks. I plan to update the gist and linked blog post with a more complete solution. These days docker compose v2 is available via apt as well, so no need to download from github releases anymore if you don't need v1.

@chamalis - Updated, thanks.
