javaguirre.ghost

Ansible role managing ghost.

Dependencies

I use debops.nodejs role as a dependency to install node, It's an external dependency.

Versions

If you have Ansible < 1.9.0 you can use the release v.0.5.0.

For Ansible >= 1.9.0 you can use either v1.0.0 or master.

List of variables and default values:

# Roles

# Ghost config.js

Usage

You could have a requirements.yml file like this:

---
- name: nginx
  src: https://github.com/jdauphant/ansible-role-nginx

- name: nodejs
  src: debops.nodejs

- name: ghost
  src: https://github.com/javaguirre/ghost-ansible

Install it:

ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml

Your main ansible would look like:

- hosts: all
  remote_user: myuser
  become: true

  vars_files:
    - vars/nginx.yml

  vars:
    ghost_user: myuser
    ghost_install_dir: /home/myuser/ghost

    ghost_production: true
    ghost_production_url: 'http://example.com'
    ghost_production_host: '127.0.0.1'

  roles:
    - nodejs
    - ghost
    - nginx

vars/nginx.yml would be something like:

---

nginx_events_params:
  - worker_connections 512

nginx_http_params:
  - sendfile "on"
  - tcp_nopush "on"
  - tcp_nodelay "on"
  - keepalive_timeout "65"
  - access_log "/var/log/nginx/access.log"
  - error_log "/var/log/nginx/error.log"

nginx_sites:
  ghost:
    - listen 0.0.0.0:80
    - server_name example.com

    - location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;

        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2368;
        proxy_redirect off;
      }

All set!
