This example is taken from molecule/default/converge.yml and is tested on each push, pull request and release.

---
- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: true

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.clamav
      freshclam_private_mirrors:
        - https://www.danami.com/hotfix/clamav

The machine needs to be prepared. In CI this is done using molecule/default/prepare.yml:

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: false

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap
    - role: robertdebock.epel

Also see a full explanation and example on how to use these roles.

The default values for the variables are set in defaults/main.yml:

---
# defaults file for clamav

# SELinux has to be configured to allow scanning. Set clamav_can_scan_system to
# either "true" or "false". Only has effect on systems that support SELinux.
clamav_can_scan_system: true

# Configure any parameter using "regexp" and "line". The parameter "regexp"
# contains the line that needs to be replaced. The replacement is stored in
# "line".
clamav_configuration:
  - line: "Example"
    state: absent
  - line: "TCPSocket 10025"
  - line: "TCPAddr 127.0.0.1"
  - line: "LogFile /var/log/clamd.scan"

# If you have local clamav mirrors (as recommended by ClamAV),
# you will also need to define a list variable with your mirrors to add,
# as the following example indicates:
# freshclam_private_mirrors:
#   - mirror1.mynetwork.com
#   - mirror2.mynetwork.com

The following roles are used to prepare a system. You can prepare your system in another way.
