# Civis Analytics Assignment

## Disclaimer

This setup is not meant to be used in production. It is simply for demonstration purposes.

## Pre-requsities

* [Vagrant](https://www.vagrantup.com/)

* [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/)

You don't need Docker for this, as Docker will be installed on the VM.

## Stack

* *App*: A simple "Task Manager" web application built with Flask

* *MongoDB*: Database tier for the app

* *ELK stack*: Monitoring

* *Vagrant*: Provisioning VM + entire stack

## Quickstart

Issuing this command will bring up the entire infrastructure:

```bash

vagrant up

```

## Services

After `vagrant up` has successfully completed, run this to see how you can access the app as well as Kibana on your browser:

```bash

IP=`grep "^vagrant_ip" Vagrantfile | awk -F '=' '{print $2}' | tr -d ' "'` && \

echo "Webapp: http://$IP:80" && \

echo "Kibana: http://$IP:5601"

```

In order to login to Kibana, you can use these credentials:

* Username: *elastic*

* Password: *changeme*

Filebeat, Metricbeat and Packetbeat are all configured to push metrics to Logstash and Elasticsearch. You will need to create indexes via Kibana to visualize and discover metrics.

## Known issues

* Log messages are garbled in Logstash, mostly due to encoding issues
