Salt states for the PyPA Infrastructure

PyPA Salt

Bootstrap a Minion

First you need to install the salt minion, you can do that with:

# yum install salt-minion
# mkdir -p /etc/salt/minion.d
# wget https://github.com/pypa/pypa-salt/raw/master/bootstrap/configs/minion.conf -O /etc/salt/minion.d/local.conf

Then you need to edit /etc/salt/minion.d/local.conf to include the correct roles for the minion you are bootstrapping.

Then you need to setup salt to connect to the master, you can do that with:

# salt-call state.highstate  # Will raise an error

Then go onto the salt master and run:

# salt-key -L  # Find the host name of the server you're connecting
# salt-key -a <hostname>

Finally you can come back to the new minion and run:

# salt-call state.highstate

Bootstrap a Master

# yum install salt-master GitPython
# mkdir -p /etc/salt/master.d
# wget https://github.com/pypa/pypa-salt/raw/master/bootstrap/configs/master.conf -O /etc/salt/master.d/local.conf
# chkconfig salt-master on
# service salt-master start

Future

Once SaltStack Helium has been released and is in EPEL we can remove the git syncing stuff in base.gitsync.
