# 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] 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 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/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub" path_to_ssh_key: "" ``` - Execute the `setup-user.yml` Ansible playbook to create a user with passwordless sudo permissions: ```bash 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 laconicd-vars.example.yml laconicd-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/laconicd-vars.yml chain_id: "" # chain id to use for the Laconic chain # 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 cpu_limit: "" # Maximum number of cpu cores to be used, eg: 6 memory_limit: "" # Maximum amount of memory in GB to be used, eg: 8G deployer_gpg_passphrase: "" # passphrase for creating GPG key used by webapp-deployer, eg: SECRET ``` - Update the [`hosts.ini`](./hosts.ini) file: ```ini [root_host] ansible_host= ansible_user=root ansible_ssh_common_args='-o ForwardAgent=yes' [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 - Under `deployment_host`, Replace `` 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: # | 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 ``` ### Result After the playbook finishes executing, the following services will be deployed (your setup should look similar to the example below): - laconicd chain RPC endpoint: - laconic console: - laconicd GQL endpoint: - webapp deployer API: - webapp deployer UI:
