IndieHosters

This repository contains the confd and bash scripts we use to control our servers. It can run inside Vagrant (see below; FIXME: check whether these instruction currently work) or deploy to a server (FIXME: update those instructions to prescribe less folder structure, explain static https+smtp hosting, and check if they currently work).

Prerequisites to running this code with Vagrant:

• vagrant
• virtualbox
• nfs
  • run apt-get install nfs-kernel-server, or your OS equivalent
• optional: vagrant-hostsupdater
  • run vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater to install

Get started:

vagrant up

Wait for the provisioning to finish (~40mins), and go to your browser: https://indiehosters.dev

FIXME: this is outdated: If you want to add another nginx instance apart from indiehosters.dev:

• For e.g. example.dev, put a cert for it in /data/per-user/example.dev/combined.pem on the host system.
• Test it with openssl s_server -cert /data/per-user/example.dev/combined.pem -www

vagrant ssh
sudo sh /data/indiehosters/scripts/approve-user.sh example.dev wordpress

Check https://example.dev in your bowser!

Cleaning up

To clean up stuff from previous runs of your VM, you can do:

vagrant ssh
rm -rf /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.wants/*

and then restart the VM with vagrant reload.
