What is the proper way to upgrade PVE through an Ansible playbook?

[Maeve]

Hey all,

I'm learning how to use Ansible right now. I know that for most apt based distros you can just use:

tasks:
  - name: Update and upgrade apt packages
    apt:
      upgrade: yes
      update_cache: yes
      cache_valid_time: 86400

But as far as I can tell this would run apt upgrade. Several official or popular sources say that Proxmox VE should be either updated through the web browser or with something like pveupgrade or specifically apt dist-upgrade.

I know that quite a few people use Ansible to update their nodes, so how would you guys recommend doing it? Is there a way to specify dist-upgrade rather than just upgrade?

Oh, I think I found it

- name: Upgrade the OS (apt-get dist-upgrade)
  ansible.builtin.apt:
    upgrade: dist
