# service-provider-setup ## Setup Ansible To get started, follow the [installation](../README.md#installation) guide to setup ansible on your machine ## Setup User `dev` - 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 [deployment_host] ansible_host= ansible_user= ansible_ssh_common_args='-o ForwardAgent=yes' ``` - Replace `` with the desired `hostname` of the remote machine - Replace `` with the IP address or hostname of the target machine - Replace `` 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: # | SUCCESS => { # "ansible_facts": { # "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3.10" # }, # "changed": false, # "ping": "pong" # } ``` - Setup `user-vars.yml` using the example file ```bash cd vars cp user-vars.example.yml user-vars.yml ``` - Edit the following vars: ```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 path_to_ssh_key: " ``` - Execute the `setup-user.yml` Ansible playbook to create a user with passwordless sudo permissions: ```bash ansible-playbook setup-user.yml -i hosts.ini --extra-vars='{ "target_host": "deployment_host" }' ``` ## Become a Service Provider ### Prerequisites - Buy a domain and configure nameservers to DigitalOcean - Generate a DigitalOcean access token - Create a PGP key on your target host ``` gpg --full-generate-key ``` - List the secret keys ``` gpg --list-secret-keys --keyid-format=long ``` - This will output something like this ``` [keyboxd] --------- sec rsa4096/0AFB10B643944C22 2024-05-03 [SC] [expires: 2025-05-03] 17B3248D6784EC6CB43365A60AFB10B643944C22 uid [ultimate] user ``` Note the `0AFB10B643944C22` sequence of characters. This will be required later. - Copy the vars files: ```bash cd vars cp dns-vars.example.yml dns1-vars.yml cp k8s-vars.example.yml k8s1-vars.yml cp container-vars.example.yml container1-vars.yml cp webapp-vars.example.yml webapp-vars.yml ``` - Update the following values in the respective variable files: ```bash # vars/dns-vars.yml domain: "" # eg: laconic.com subdomain_prefix: "" # eg: lcn-cad cluster_control_ip: "" # eg: 23.111.78.179 do_api_token: "" # eg: dop_v1... # vars/k8s-vars.yml target_host: "deployment_host" gpg_key_id: "" # The sequence obtained in the previous step, eg: 0AFB10B643944C22 vault_passphrase: "" # passphrase for GPG key org_id: "" # eg: lcn location_id: "" # eg: cad dns_domain: "" # eg: 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 ``` - Update `ansible_user` in the [`hosts.ini`](./hosts.ini) file to the user on target host - Run the `service-provider-setup.yml` ansible-playbook to DNS records, deploy k8s, setup container registry, deploy the webapp-deployer API and webapp-deployer UI ```bash ansible-playbook service-provider-setup.yml -i hosts.ini --extra-vars='{ target_host: "deployment_host" }' --user $USER ```
