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

---
- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  # This role installs packages using the `raw` module and needs to connect as
  # `root`. (`sudo` is not available before bootstrapping.) All tasks in the
  # role have `become` set to `false`, so you can use either `false` or `true`
  # for `become`, the role will not use become (so `sudo`) for any task.
  become: true  # `false` will also work.
  # This role installs python, gathering facts can't be done before `python` is
  # installed. This role runs the `setup` module, so facts will be available
  # after running the role.
  gather_facts: false

  roles:
    - role: robertdebock.bootstrap

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 bootstrap

# Do you want to wait for the host to be available?
bootstrap_wait_for_host: false

# The number of seconds you want to wait during connection test before failing.
bootstrap_timeout: 3

# Tell the role to "become" or not.
bootstrap_become: true
