# service-provider-setup
## Setup Ansible
To get started, follow the [installation](../README.md#installation) guide to setup ansible on your machine
## Prerequisites
- Set up a DigitalOcean Droplet with passwordless SSH access
- Buy a domain and configure [nameservers pointing to DigitalOcean](https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/networking/dns/getting-started/dns-registrars/)
- Generate a DigitalOcean access token, used for API authentication and managing cloud resources
## Setup a new User
- Create a new `hosts.ini` file:
```bash
cp ../hosts.example.ini hosts.ini
```
- Edit the [`hosts.ini`](./hosts.ini) file to run the playbook on a remote machine:
```ini
[root_host]
<host_name> ansible_host=<target_ip> ansible_user=<ssh_user> ansible_ssh_common_args='-o ForwardAgent=yes'
```
- Replace `<host_name>` with the desired `hostname` of the remote machine
- Replace `<target_ip>` with the IP address or hostname of the target machine
- Replace `<ssh_user>` with `root`
- Verify that you are able to connect to the host using the following command:
```bash
ansible all -m ping -i hosts.ini
# Expected output:
# <host_name> | SUCCESS => {
# "ansible_facts": {
# "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3.10"
# },
# "changed": false,
# "ping": "pong"
# }
```
- Setup `user-vars.yml` using the example file
```bash
cp vars/user-vars.example.yml vars/user-vars.yml
```
- Edit the `user-vars.yml` file:
```bash
# name of the user you want to setup on the target host
username: ""
# password of the user you want to setup on the target host
password: ""
# path to the ssh key on your machine, eg: "/home/dev/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"
path_to_ssh_key: ""
```
- Execute the `setup-user.yml` Ansible playbook to create a user with passwordless sudo permissions:
```bash
cd ../
LANG=en_US.utf8 ansible-playbook setup-user.yml -i hosts.ini --extra-vars='{ "target_host": "deployment_host" }'
```
## Become a Service Provider
### Setup
- Copy the vars files:
```bash
cd vars
cp dns-vars.example.yml dns-vars.yml
cp gpg-vars.example.yml gpg-vars.yml
cp k8s-vars.example.yml k8s-vars.yml
cp container-vars.example.yml container-vars.yml
cp webapp-vars.example.yml webapp-vars.yml
cd -
```
- Update the following values in the respective variable files:
```bash
# vars/dns-vars.yml
full_domain: "" # eg: laconic.com
subdomain_prefix: "" # eg: lcn-cad
service_provider_ip: "" # eg: 23.111.78.179
do_api_token: "" # Digital Ocean access token that you generated, eg: dop_v1...
# vars/gpg-vars.yml
gpg_user_name: "" # Full name of the user for the GPG key
gpg_user_email: "" # Email address associated with the GPG key
gpg_passphrase: "" # Passphrase for securing the GPG key
# vars/k8s-vars.yml
target_host: "deployment_host"
org_id: "" # eg: lcn
location_id: "" # eg: cad
base_domain: "" # eg: laconic
support_email: "" # eg: support@laconic.com
# vars/container-vars.yml
container_registry_username: "" # username to login to the container registry
container_registry_password: "" # password to login to the container registry
# vars/webapp-vars.yml
authority_name: "" # eg: my-org-name
cpu_reservation: "" # Minimum number of cpu cores to be used, eg: 2
memory_reservation: "" # Minimum amount of memory in GB to be used, eg: 4G
deployer_gpg_passphrase: "" # passphrase for creating GPG key used by webapp-deployer, eg: SECRET
```
- Update the [`hosts.ini`](./hosts.ini) file:
```ini
[root_host]
<host_name> ansible_host=<target_ip> ansible_user=root ansible_ssh_common_args='-o ForwardAgent=yes'
[deployment_host]
<host_name> ansible_host=<target_ip> ansible_user=<new_username> ansible_ssh_common_args='-o ForwardAgent=yes'
```
- Replace `<host_name>` with the desired `hostname` of the remote machine
- Replace `<target_ip>` with the IP address or hostname of the target machine
- Under `deployment_host`, Replace `<ansible_user>` with the name of the user you have created
- Verify that you are able to connect to the host using the following command:
```bash
ansible all -m ping -i hosts.ini
# Expected output:
# <host_name> | SUCCESS => {
# "ansible_facts": {
# "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3.10"
# },
# "changed": false,
# "ping": "pong"
# }
```
- Run the `service-provider-setup.yml` ansible-playbook to:
- Create DNS records
- Deploy k8s
- Setup laconicd and laconic console
- Setup container registry
- Deploy the webapp-deployer API and webapp-deployer UI
```bash
LANG=en_US.utf8 ansible-playbook service-provider-setup.yml -i hosts.ini --extra-vars='{ target_host: "deployment_host" }' --user $USER
```
