IndieHosters

This repository contains the configuration and scripts we use to control our servers. It can run inside Vagrant 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
  • linux: run apt-get install nfs-kernel-server, or your OS equivalent
• 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

If the process fails, for instance due to network problems, you can retry by running vagrant provision.

Set up a domain:

vagrant ssh core-1
sudo mkdir -p /data/import/example.dev/TLS
sudo cp /data/indiehosters/scripts/unsecure-certs/example.dev.pem /data/import/example.dev/TLS
sudo systemctl enable static@example.dev
sudo systemctl start static@example.dev

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

Cleaning up

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

vagrant destroy
vagrant up

Tests

vagrant destroy
vagrant up
# Set up example.dev as above, and test https://example.dev in your browser
vagrant ssh core-1
sudo su
/data/indiehosters/tests/start.sh
exit
exit
vagrant reload --provision
vagrant ssh core-1
sudo su
/data/indiehosters/tests/finish.sh
