Eth2 ansible collection

This is an experimental Ansible collection of roles and playbooks to use for testnets.

It is NOT RECOMMENDED to use this in mainnet, as security was not the primary focus of this. The primary focus is to quickly spin up testnets and automate things that require more care in a mainnet context.

This is a work in progress ansible collection. The intention is to eventually publish it, to make it more reusable. For now, you can git-submodule this repository, and add the roles as source for your playbooks.

Usage

• machine: common setup things for a new machine, installing required things for other roles
• ubuntu: common ubuntu os settings (TODO: hardening)
• eth2client:
  • defines validator assignments
  • defines validator
  • defines beacon node
  • defines eth2stats setup.
  • Defaults can be configured by picking any of the defaults subdirectories:
    • lighthouse
    • nimbus
    • prysm
    • teku
• bootnode: Discv5 bootnode for eth2 clients
• deposit_contract: Deploy testnet deposit contract, optionally with tokens instead of eth.
• metrics: Deploy prometheus, grafana, install dashboard and datasources, setup nginx, setup letsencrypt and vhosts.
• val_tools: Build deposits, execute deposits.

The val_tools and deposit_contract roles assume ethereal is installed.
