# service-provider-setup
## Setup Ansible
To get started, follow the [installation](../README.md#installation) guide to setup ansible on your machine
## Configure DNS
### Prerequisites
- Buy a domain and configure nameservers to DigitalOcean
- Generate a DigitalOcean access token
### Create DNS entries in DigitalOcean
- Copy the [`dns-vars.example.yml`](./dns-vars.example.yml) vars file
```bash
cp dns-vars.example.yml dns-vars.yml
```
- Enter the `dns-vars.yml` file
```bash
# primary domain for which DNS records will be managed
# eg: laconic.com
domain: ""
# specific prefix for subdomains
# eg: lcn-cad
subdomain_prefix: ""
# The IP address to be used for the A record of the cluster control machine
# eg: 23.111.78.179
cluster_control_ip: ""
# DigitalOcean access token
# eg: dop_v1...
do_api_token: ""
```
- Run the [`setup-dns.yml`](./setup-dns.yml) ansible playbook to create the necessary DNS entries in DigitalOcean
```bash
ansible-playbook setup-dns.yml
```
## 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]
<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 -k
# Expected output:
# <host_name> | SUCCESS => {
# "ansible_facts": {
# "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3.10"
# },
# "changed": false,
# "ping": "pong"
# }
```
- Execute the `setup-user.yml` Ansible playbook to create a user `dev` with sudo permissions:
```bash
ansible-playbook setup-user.yml -i hosts.ini --extra-vars='{ "target_host": "deployment_host" }'
```
