The Aegir is a hosting system for deploying and managing large networks of Drupal sites. This collection of recipes automate Aegir setup.
Run the following commands with-in your Chef Repository:
knife cookbook site install aegir
knife cookbook upload aegir
Define the Chef Roles with corresponding recipes:
# roles/web.rb
name "web"
run_list "recipe[aegir]"
default_attributes "aegir" => {
"client_email" => "admin@example.com", # default client
"frontend" => "launchpad.example.com" # aegir frontend
}
# roles/db.rb
name "db"
run_list "recipe[mysql::server]", "recipe[aegir::secure_mysql]"
default_attributes "mysql" => {
"bind_address" => "127.0.0.1"
}
And then bootstrap Aegir on a single Rackspace Cloud Servers instance with:
knife rackspace server create 'role[app],role[db]' --server-name drupalbox --image 49 --flavor 3
You can also bootstrap database on a different node, see Launch Cloud Instances with Knife for the reference.
The project comes with a helper tasks for bootstraping recipes in a sandbox environment:
bundle install
bundle exec rake sandbox:init
bundle exec rake sandbox:up
See complete list of the tasks available with:
bundle exec rake -T
Make sure nginx listening on the proper interface:
bundle exec rake sandbox:ssh
sudo -i
vim /var/aegir/config/server_master/nginx/vhost.d/localhost
service nginx restart
NOTE: The sandbox environment depends on VirtualBox thru the Vagrant project. Please check Vagrant manual and make sure you've correct version of VirtualBox installed.
