# Ansible provisioning
## Set up your SSH keys
Verify that your private and public key are located in the default directory `~/.ssh`.
The public key is used by Vagrant to establish the connection between your machine and the virtual machine.
If you don't have a SSH key you can read [how to generate one](https://help.github.com/articles/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent/).
You can check out the configuration on the "General Vagrant VM configuration." section of the [Vagrantfile](Vagrantfile).
## Getting started with Vagrant
Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/stackbuilders/nano-chat-ansible.git
```
Download the VM images and create two guest machines, one in 192.168.1.10 and the other in 192.168.1.20.
```bash
vagrant up
```
Check if everything is working fine in vagrant
```bash
vagrant status
```
Login to *webserver* machine
```bash
vagrant ssh webserver
```
Check if SSH works properly
```bash
ssh vagrant@192.168.1.10
```
You have your servers up and running but with no apps.
## Provisioning with Ansible
### Install requirements on target server
1. Verify connection through Ansible
```bash
ansible -m ping all
```
When you receive a pong request, it means that Ansible can connect with the remote servers.
1. Install galaxy requirements
1. Add your database server to the `hosts` file.
1. Add the following apps to the `default-apps` role
- htop
- tree
- net-tools
- vim
- ufw
- make
1. Open the ports 80 and 443 on the `networking` role.
1. Add `default-apps` and `networking` roles to **webserver playbook**
1. Run the playbook
```bash
ansible-playbook playbooks/webserver_playbook.yml
```
### Prepare a deployment
1. Clone the Node.js app repository on the `deploy-app` role:
```
https://github.com/stackbuilders/nano-chat.git
```
Make sure the destination of the application is the `node_app_location` directory.
1. Start the Node.js application on the `deploy-app` role by executing:
```
make start -C {{ node_app_location }}
```
1. Run the playbook
```bash
ansible-playbook playbooks/deploy_playbook.yml
```
Your app is now provisioned. Test it on [http://192.168.1.10](http://192.168.1.10)
### Using a database
1. Run the database playbook to provision the database server.
```bash
ansible-playbook playbooks/database_playbook.yml
```
1. Install `sequelize-cli` node module on the `deploy-app` role
1. Run Sequelize commands on the `{{ node_app_location }}/backend` directory:
```bash
sequelize db:migrate
sequelize db:seed:all
```
1. Define a environment variable `DB_CONN_NANOCHAT` with value of `postgresql://postgres@192.168.1.20:5432/nanochat` **deploy playbook**
1. Test the application's endpoint to retrieve some data from database on [http://192.168.1.10/api/users](http://192.168.1.10/api/users)
