A simple deplyoment creating a bastion host and two worker nodes. It can't get simpler ...
Deployment is controlled by two configuration files:
env_vars.yml defines all configuration parameters that COULD be modified, whereas sample_vars.yml is a template for all environment specific values that HAVE to be changed.
Start by creating a copy of sample_vars.yml and rename it (e.g. my_sample_vars.yml). Then modifiy all parameters to match your environment.
Some deployments need secrets e.g. your AWS credentials or API tokens.
DO NOT add these to git !
Instead create a file called e.g. ./ansible/my_secret_vars.yml and store all secrets etc. there. This file can also be reused for other deplyoments.
NOTE:
Both my_sample_vars.yml my_secret.vars.yml are in the .gitignore configuration which SHOULD protect you from adding them to git!
Run follwoing commands from the ./ansible folder:
ansible-playbook main.yml -e @configs/simple-example/my_sample_vars.yml -e @my_secret_vars.yml
ansible-playbook destroy.yml -e @configs/simple-example/my_sample_vars.yml -e @my_secret_vars.yml
