+# user-setup
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Setup Ansible: follow the [installation](../README.md#installation) guide to setup ansible on your machine.
+
+- Setup a remote machine with passwordless SSH login for the root user
+
+- Install `passlib` used for handling encrypted passwords when setting up a user
+
+  ```bash
+  pip install passlib
+  ```
+
+## Setup a user
+
+Execute the following commands in the `user-setup` directory
+
+- Create a new `hosts.ini` file:
+
+   ```bash
+   cp ../hosts.example.ini hosts.ini
+   ```
+
+- Edit the [`hosts.ini`](./hosts.ini) file:
+
+  ```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
+
+  # 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 user-vars.example.yml 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
+  ```
