Dokku-Alt Server Setup
This is a set of Ansible playbooks to provision a Dokku server running for my own personal PAAS.
These won't work out of the box for provisioning your own server but you are welcome to fork and adapt them to your own needs under the BSD License. See the LICENSE file for more details.
Example Usage
To get started you must install the requirements:
$ mkvirtualenv -p /usr/bin/python2.7 dokku-playbooks (dokku-playbooks) $ pip install -r requirements.txt
The original bootstraping of a fresh server involves only creating a non-root user with password-less sudo associated with my SSH key:
(dokku-playbooks) $ ansible-playbook bootstrap.yml -i hosts.ini -u root --ask-pass
Once that initial user is created you will no longer need to connect as root. In fact once you have run the playbook for the first time you will not longer be allowed to connect as root:
(dokku-playbooks) $ ansible-playbook -i hosts.ini site.yml
This will install and configure a few base packages as well as finally Docker
and Dokku-Alt. To add an admin user for Dokku you need to send the SSH key to
the dokku access:add command:
(dokku-playbooks) $ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh <ip> "sudo sshcommand acl-add dokku [description]"
The tasks are tagged so that only parts of the deployment can be run such as:
(dokku-playbooks) $ ansible-playbook -i hosts.ini site.yml --tags "packages,security"
To see the list of available tags you'll have to read through the playbooks.
