DebOps
The DebOps project is installed (src on GitHub) on greg-desk as a controller using Ansible from source in ~/bin/ansible
We're developing a DebOps for MediaWiki like the DebOps for WordPress project There are a lot of roles included in the Debops project. My project is to compose a solution similar to Meza, but using MediaWikiFarm as the farm system.
Notes[edit | edit source]
I created inventories in biz/ops/prod for creating a GitLab environment. Meanwhile, the 'monorepo' (the DebOps code itself) is stored in ~/.local/share/debops/debops/ You'll want to run debops-update on a (daily) regular basis.
I created a project directory ~/src/qb3 where I also installed DebOps. The monorepo installed in the debops/ subdirectory of a given DebOps project directory will take precedence over the one installed globally in ~/.local/share/debops/debops/ or included in the Python package. [1]
To bootstrap my first host, I ran debops bootstrap -u root --limit labs, but it would fail on '/usr/bin/python: not found'. By specifying that the remote host should use python3, it succeeded.
[all:vars]
ansible_python_interpreter='/usr/bin/env python3'
[debops_all_hosts]
# greg-desk ansible_connection=local
labs ansible_ssh_host=labs.qualitybox.us
Next, I ran the common playbook with debops common -u root --limit labs, but that failed trying to download some secrets (error message below). Re-running the command succeeded.
