Users can now define a timeout value for waiting for
softwareupdate operations to complete. By default, the role will
wait up to 5 minutes to check for updates and 20 minutes to install
the Command Line Tools package. This is generous, but it provides
some wiggle room for slow/Wi-Fi internet connections. Users can
enforce a faster installation time by reducing those values.
This feature relates to #18 and will prevent the installation
from getting stuck for too long. This is not a true fix, but
will at least save time for certain users/use-cases.
Breaking Changes
The force_install variable was renamed to clt_force_install.
The README explains the reasoning behind the prefix.
Summary of Changes
Move installation tasks to separate file
Detection of ansible_distribution is now an assertion.
Add Command Line Tools tmp file path to vars
Move handlers to tasks (include_tasks in handlers obscures names)
Asynchronously run softwareupdate and poll for completion
