ansible-project-boilerplate

Ansible boilerplate for starting new projects.
The examples are based on debian/ubuntu, they can be easily adjusted for other distros.

Folder structure

dir	contents
environments/	Configuration for vagrant, development, staging, production or other environments
roles/	All ansible configuration modules
Vagrantfile	Configured to initiate local development environment

Vagrant provisioning

Vagrant is just another ansible environment, I don't like using the builtin provisioning system of vagrant.

ansible-playbook -i environments/vagrant/inventory --private-key ~/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key complete.yml

Adding an environment

1. Copy the vagrant folder structure in environments to a folder with environment name
2. Rename the group_vars folder to match the environment
3. Review all files and update the required to match the nodes

Example

cd environments
cp -Rvp vagrant development
mv development/group_vars/vagrant development/group_vars/development
// Adjust files in development accordingly
