Ansible playbooks for a Bedrock based WordPress LEMP app server

bedrock-ansible

Ansible playbook designed to be used with Bedrock to configure dev & production servers for Bedrock-based WordPress sites.

This playbook will install the common LEMP (Linux/Nginx/MySQL/PHP) stack with PHP 5.5 and MariaDB as a drop-in MySQL replacement (but better) on Ubuntu 12.04 Precise LTS.

Vagrant is recommended to provision servers and this comes with a basic Vagrantfile for an easy dev setup.

Requirements

1. Ansible >= 1.5.4 - Installation docs
2. Virtualbox >= 4.3 - Downloads
3. Vagrant >= 1.5 - Downloads

Installation

Download/fork/clone this repo to your local machine.

Usage

1. Edit Vagrantfile and set your config.vm.synced_folder (you can copy this Vagrantfile into a project's directory for a project specific VM).
2. Edit group_vars/all and add your WordPress site(s). See Options below for details.
3. Optionally copy and edit hosts.example to hosts for more than the single dev host through Vagrant (since Vagrant automatically creates its own hosts inventory).
4. Optionally add any dev hostnames to your local /etc/hosts file (or use the hostsupdated plugin.
5. Run vagrant up.

Options

All Ansible configuration is done in YAML.

wordpress_sites is the top level array used to define the WordPress sites/virtual hosts that will be created.

• site_name (required) - name used to identify site (commonly the domain name) (default: none)
• site_hosts (required) - array of hosts that Nginx will listen on (default: none)
• user (optional) - user owner of site directories/files (default: root | user in site.yml)
• group (optional) - group owner of site directories/files (default: www-data)
• site_install (optional) - whether to install WordPress or not (default: true)

• db_import (optional) - Path to local sql dump file which will be imported (default: false)
• admin_user (optional) - WP admin user name (default: admin)

  • base_path (optional) - base path/current site path (default: /)
• env (required) - hash of multisite options
  • wp_home (required) - WP_HOME constant or home option (default: none)
  • wp_siteurl (required) - WP_SITEURL constant or siteurl option (default: none)

Todo

• Multisite: basic support is included but not yet complete. There are issues with doing a network install from scratch via WP-CLI.
• MariaDB: there's no root password set yet.
• Nginx: configuration needs more options and advanced setups like static files and subdomain multisite support.
