The above 'recipe' installs [https://jujucharms.com/mediawiki/trusty/3this MediaWiki charm] which has been deployed 813 times as of this writing. BFD. It didn't work for me (I had to add [https://jujucharms.com/apache2/trusty/13/ Apache]). Although this charm invokes a2enconf, I don't see any code which installs or verifies Apache2 as a dependency in the [http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~charmers/charms/trusty/mediawiki/trunk/view/head:/hooks/install install hook]. So, yeah, garbage. They should read the docs about [https://jujucharms.com/docs/1.20/authors-charm-writing how to write a charm]. The example explicitly installs, configures and starts Apache as part of a simple web service. But the documentation is very sparse. The only "interface" (a primary element of orchestration) that is documented is 'mysql' and even that is barely covered. [https://jujucharms.com/wordpress/trusty/2 The Wordpress charm] is [http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~charmers/charms/trusty/wordpress/trunk/files written better] because it works, and actually offers a simple switch between nginx and Apache. Although it's a bit more 'polished' the WordPress Charm is still [http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~charmers/charms/trusty/wordpress/trunk/view/head:/inc/common a bunch of bash scripts] that end up installing things all over the place (standard locations?). It installs [http://php-fpm.org/ php-fpm] (FastCGI Process Manager, which is an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation) It does use git, but is it configurable as to who/what/where you can pull from? I figured out that for the Wordpress charm, you can see the 'components' in the [http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~charmers/charms/trusty/wordpress/trunk/files/head:/files/charm/ 'charm' directory]. In general, I'm '''very''' unimpressed with the implementation of the Charm Store. The underlying technology doesn't seem fully baked either, but I profess that I didn't look into it much.
