The other day, I bought an M1 Mac. The setup seemed to be a pain, so I made an Ansible Playbook so that I can easily recreate it later.

How to execute
1. Install xcode command line tools
xcode-select --install
2. Install Homebrew
Follow the steps below and you should be able to install it without any problems.
https://docs.brew.sh/Installation
This script installs Homebrew to its preferred prefix (/usr/local for macOS Intel, /opt/homebrew for Apple Silicon) so that you don’t need sudo when you brew install.
cd /opt
sudo mkdir homebrew
sudo chown $USER homebrew
sudo chgrp admin homebrew
curl -L https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/tarball/master | tar xz --strip 1 -C homebrew
3. Set PATH for M1 Mac brew
export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"
4. brew install Ansible
brew install ansible
5. Setup & Execute Playbook
#!/bin/zsh
ANSIBLE_PATH=~/workspace/settings/m1mac-ansible
## clone repo
git clone https://github.com/katsuhisa91/m1mac-ansible.git ${ANSIBLE_PATH}
## ansible galaxy
ansible-galaxy collection install community.general
## ansible
cd ${ANSIBLE_PATH}
ansible-playbook -i inventory/localhost localhost.yml
That's it! Enjoy your M1 Mac life! 🚀

This did not work for me. I didn't check the playbook but I got errors during "backup zsh dot files" (pretty important I would think to fail the script before it continues past) and "Run setup targets".
Errors are:

Seems like creating symlinks is an issue? I'm new to Ansible.
I have an m1 macbook pro, last years generation.
Thanks
