etherpad-lite Cookbook

etherpad-lite::default

installs etherpad-lite

Requirements

cookbooks

  • nodejs - etherpad-lite runs on javascript
  • postgresql - we use postgres
  • npm - pg gem needs to be installed
  • nginx - Might not be the optimal way to run it

Attributes

The following attributes should be set based on your specific deployment, see the attributes/default.rb file for default values. All values should be strings unless otherwise specified.

  • node['etherpad-lite']['service_name'] = Name of service

  • node['etherpad-lite']['service_user'] - user to run etherpad

  • node['etherpad-lite']['service_user_group'] - group to run etherpad

  • node['etherpad-lite']['service_user_home']- home dir

  • node['etherpad-lite']['etherpad_git_repo_url'] = set this to the git repo of your fork of etherpad-lite, or leave as default

  • node['etherpad-lite']['etherpad_api_key'] = sets the API key for the HTTP API (APIKEY.txt), if you leave it blank it will be generated for you by the app on first launch

  • node['etherpad-lite']['logs_dir'] = Path to logs directory

  • node['etherpad-lite']['title'] - Name your instance!

  • node['etherpad-lite']['favicon_url'] - favicon_url favicon default name, alternatively, set up a fully specified Url to your own favicon

  • node['etherpad-lite']['default_text'] - the default text of a pad

  • node['etherpad-lite']['domain'] = Domain where it is running

  • node['etherpad-lite']['ip_address'] - IP address to bind

  • node['etherpad-lite']['port_number'] - (number) port number to bind

  • node['etherpad-lite']['ssl_enabled'] - (boolean) make sure to have the minimum and correct file access permissions set so that the Etherpad server can access them

  • node['etherpad-lite']['ssl_key_path'] - ssl key path

  • node['etherpad-lite']['ssl_cert_path'] - ssl cert path

  • node['etherpad-lite']['db_type'] - postgres, sqlite or mysql

  • node['etherpad-lite']['db_user'] - db user

  • node['etherpad-lite']['db_host'] - db host

  • node['etherpad-lite']['db_password'] - db password

  • node['etherpad-lite']['db_name'] - db name

  • node['etherpad-lite']['require_session'] - (boolean) Users must have a session to access pads. This effectively allows only group pads to be accessed.

  • node['etherpad-lite']['edit_only'] - (boolean) Users may edit pads but not create new ones. Pad creation is only via the API. This applies both to group pads and regular pads.

  • node['etherpad-lite']['minify'] - if true, all css & js will be minified before sending to the client. This will improve the loading performance massivly, but makes it impossible to debug the javascript/css

  • node['etherpad-lite']['max_age'] - How long may clients use served javascript code (in seconds)? Without versioning this may cause problems during deployment. Set to 0 to disable caching

  • node['etherpad-lite']['use_abiword'] - Set to false to disable. Default is true

  • node['etherpad-lite']['abiword_path'] - This is the path to the Abiword executable. Abiword is needed to advanced import/export features of pads

  • node['etherpad-lite']['require_authentication'] - This setting is used if you require authentication of all users. Note: /admin always requires authentication.

  • node['etherpad-lite']['require_authorization'] - Require authorization by a module, or a user with is_admin set, see below.

  • node['etherpad-lite']['admin_enabled'] - Enable the admin interface

  • node['etherpad-lite']['admin_password'] - Password for "admin" user.

  • node['etherpad-lite']['log_level'] - The log level we are using, can be: DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR

  • node['etherpad-lite']['plugins'] = An array of plugins to install. These should be strings of the plugin name, without the ep_ prefix (as seen in the etherpad-lite admin's plugin manager).
