Installation Guide

Let's get Griffin up and running on your system!

Prerequisites

Griffin requires:

Check if installed:

ansible --version
unzip --version

Install if missing:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install ansible unzip

Griffin requires:

Install Ansible:

# Option 1: Using Homebrew (if you already have it)
brew install ansible

# Option 2: Using pip
pip3 install ansible

Note: Griffin will automatically install Homebrew, Xcode Command Line Tools, and other dependencies during the playbook run.

If you're behind a proxy like Zscaler, there's an additional step:

Add the Zscaler root certificate:

You'll need to add the Zscaler root certificate to your system's trust store. This is typically located at /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/.

We've included a helper script to simplify this process.

Always review any script before running it to ensure it's safe.
