A set of Ansible roles and wrapper scripts to deploy (web) applications.

The "stack" from this repo is to be installed on a "deploy" server/runner, to be used in conjonction with a CI/CD tool (Jenkins, Gitlab, Travis, ...). It allows the deploy steps for a given app to be easily customisable and to be stored alongside the codebase of the project. When triggered from a deployment tool, the stack will clone the codebase and "play" a given deploy playbook from there.

The stack only gets tested on Debian Linux, but should run on any Linux distribution, as long as Ansible >=2.9 is present. You can install either:

• With ce-provision
• Manually by running a local playbook
• With Docker (coming soon)

More installation instructions can be found here.

Configuration options here.

While you can re-use/fork roles or call playbooks directly from your deployment tool, it is recommended to use the provided wrapper scripts, as they will take care of setting up the needed environments.

• Deploy with the "build" script
• Deploy with individual steps

Ansible roles and group of roles that constitute the deploy stack.

• Sync roles - roles that sync data/assets between environments.
• "Meta" - roles that bundles other individual roles together for tackling common use cases.
• Data backups - generate backups for each build.
• Cron - roles to generate cron entries.
• Code deployment - roles managing the codebase: deployment, symlinks, composer steps, ...
• CLI Tools - roles to install app-specific cli tool and utilities (Drush, cachetool, ...)
