Will install haproxy and configure it.
Only tested on Ubuntu and SmartOS for now. Some features are only possible with haproxy 1.5 (like the compresion flags). Ubuntu 14.04 ships with haproxy 1.4.x.
There is a main dictionary that needs to be set named haproxy
.
This dictionary has 4 main sections :
- global
- defaults
- frontends
- backends
Each section has the most used parameters that I can think of. This role does not have (yet) full coverage of the main haproxy project. Feel free to submit a pull request if something is missing for you.
I highly suggest that you use a seperate variable file for this role (using the vars_files
directive), but you can use it in the main playbook if you insist:
- hosts: loadbalances
roles:
- role: haproxy
haproxy_frontends:
- name: 'fe-mysupersite'
ip: '123.123.123.120'
maxconn: '1000'
default_backend: 'be-mysupersite'
haproxy_backends:
- name: 'be-mysupersite'
description: 'mysupersite is really cool'
servers:
- name: 'be-mysupersite-01'
ip: '192.168.1.100'
See the full example to see all options.
