My ansible NAS setup

Usage

Install Ansible (macOS):

brew install ansible

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/cccra/nas-setup

Create a host varialbe file and adjust the variables:

cd infra/
mkdir -p host_vars/YOUR_HOSTNAME
vi host_vars/YOUR_HOSTNAME/vars.yml

Create a Keychain item for your Ansible Vault password (on macOS):

security add-generic-password \
               -a YOUR_USERNAME \
               -s ansible-vault-password \
               -w

The pass.sh script will extract the Ansible Vault password from your Keychain automatically each time Ansible requests it.

Create an encrypted secret.yml file and adjust the variables:

ansible-vault create host_vars/YOUR_HOSTNAME/secret.yml
ansible-vault edit host_vars/YOUR_HOSTNAME/secret.yml

Add your custom inventory file to hosts:

cp hosts_example hosts
vi hosts

Install the dependencies:

ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml

Finally, run the playbook:

ansible-playbook run.yml -l your-host-here -K

The "-K" parameter is only necessary for the first run, since the playbook configures passwordless sudo for the main login user

For consecutive runs, if you only want to update the Docker containers, you can run the playbook like this:

ansible-playbook run.yml --tags="port,containers"
