vps

This repository contains all the files I use to manage services hosted on viyurz.fr.

Requirements

Ansible:

sudo apt install -y ansible

Setup SSL certificates with Certbot beforehand:

sudo apt install -y certbot python3-certbot-dns-ovh

Secrets

Copy the existing secrets.yml.example to secrets.yml, run ansible-vault encrypt secrets.yml to encrypt the file with a password, and finally edit the newly encrypted file with ansible-vault edit secrets.yml.

If you want to change the vault password run ansible-vault rekey secrets.yml.

Backups

Run the backup-services.yml playbook once to setup the passphrase file.

After that, you can create a root cronjob to run this playbook without requiring interactivity:

ANSIBLE_ROLES_PATH=/home/viyurz/vps/roles/ ansible-playbook /home/viyurz/vps/playbooks/backup-services.yml -e include_secrets=false -e selected_projects=''

Here we leave selected_projects empty to backup all projects.
