Vito

Vito installs webservers for you very easily. Its goal is to be opinionated, with a shallow learning curve needed due to the use of a Gemfile-like specification file.

Build Status

server :linode do
  connection :ssh, :command => "ssh deploy@your_server_com"

  install :rbenv
  install :git
  install :ruby, version: "2.0.0-p195"
  install :apache do
    # install vhosts for port 80 and 443
    vhosts with: :ssl, path: "/var/projects"
    with :passenger
  end

  install :tmux
end

server :ec2 do
  # ...

  install :postgres, username: 'vito', password: 'corleone'
end

Along with the installation process, it'll also be able to output status reports about a particular server.

For now, it won't be hosted, just sending SSH messages instead.

Usage

Vito is unstable and we do not advise using this on production yet. Let us do more tests first.

Working packages

These are the packages that are currently working:

  • Rbenv
  • Git

Contributing

Integration tests are run with Vagrant, so please install it first. Important: don't use the gem, but the newer packaged installation. In fact, you should uninstall it (removing binstubs even) or Bundler will start complaining.

Vagrant test boxes

We have acceptance test for different operating systems (e.g Ubuntu, CentOS etc). Once you clone the repo, run:

$ bundle exec rake setup:download_vagrant_box

This will download VirtualBox images in spec/vagrant_boxes/ automatically if they're not present, initialize them with Vagrant and take a initial snapshot. Whenever you run a spec, we'll roll back to this snapshot to test it in a clean slate.

Each box has around 400Mb in size, so make sure you have enough space. For a list of to-be-downloaded boxes, see the Rakefile.

Add recipes to the recipes/ dir. You can just clone the existing ones.

Also, take a look at the rake tasks for running specs, e.g rake spec:unit, rake spec:acceptance, rake spec:all etc

Once you're ready to push:

  1. Fork the repo
  2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
  3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Added some feature')
  4. Run specs with rake spec:all (check rake -T for more options)
  5. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
  6. Create new Pull Request
