NEWSITE ROLE

Prepares nginx and yaml files needed for configuration of a new site. THe role writes to a separate location, outside of macfair. By default this is a directory on the same level as wherever you have macfair installed, but can also be set to any location my modifying the host_vars/localhomst.yml as follows

☁  kelso:macfair ➜ (main) ✗ grep sites_dir host_vars/localhost.yml
sites_dir: "~/apps/live"

The new files will be written to the target location, after cloning the sites repo. By default this will be git@github.com/cerico/nginx-files.git but can also be set to a different repo if preferred, via the nginx_repo variable in host_vars/localhost.yml as follows

☁  kelso:macfair ➜ (main) ✗ grep nginx_repo host_vars/localhost.yml
nginx_repo: "git@github/username/reponame.git"

  • Creates a named nginx.conf file in files
  • Creates a named ansbile role for new site
  • Adds a named entry to the Makefile in Makefile
  • Adds an entry to ansible hosts file in hosts

How To Use

$ make newsite

Example run

 make newsite
$(python3 -m site --user-base)/bin/ansible-playbook newsite.yml -i hosts
What is your app_name? - supply full url if you know it: rhyl.io37.ch

NEXT STEPS

Now we can run the newly created role in the Makefile of the sites repo. cd ../sites or cd into wherever the specified location in host_vars/localhost.yml is, and run make with followed by the url of the site you added when prompted in make newsite. For more details, check the README in the sites repo.
