Collection of Ansible Roles

All the roles expose variables that can be overridden through host/group variables. These variables are documented on the relevant role's README.

Usage

1. Create an Ansible project or clone this repo as a starting point. The structure looks something like this.

/my-ansible-project/
  /group_vars/
  /host_vars/
  /roles/ - Subtree (http://blogs.atlassian.com/2013/05/alternatives-to-git-submodule-git-subtree/) pull from the subprojects
  /production - Production inventory file
  /development - Development inventory file
  /playbook.yml

2. Create an inventory file

/production_inventory

[web1]
192.168.33.100 ansible_ssh_user=vagrant

[web2]
192.168.33.101 ansible_ssh_user=vagrant

[webservers:children]
web1
web2

3. Override some variables

/host_vars/web1

php_extensions:
  - php5-mcrypt
php5_fpm_pools:
  - name: my_service
    prefix: /var
    user: vagrant
    group: vagrant
    socket_listen_owner: nginx
    socket_listen_group: nginx
    process_max_requests: 500
    access_log_path: /var/log/php5-fpm-$pool.access.log
nginx_service_enabled: no

4. Create a playbook and add some roles

/my_playbook.yml

- hosts: webservers
  roles:
    - common
    - nginx
    - php5
    - php5-fpm
