We Create a project that uses Terraform to build the infrastructure and Ansible to automate the whole configuration of the servers and deploy our application.

Terraform part (Automatic infrastructure)

How to use?

1- Install Terraform (https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/terraform/install-cli?in=terraform/aws-get-started)

2- Create azure account

3- Install the Azure CLI and authenticate with Azure with the following command:

az login

4- Clone the project: (https://github.com/af009/ansible-project)

5- Create a file called terraform-stage.tfvars in the root folder

environment_name = "staging"
vm_size          = "Standard_B1ms"
admin_username   = "your username"
admin_password   = "your password"
PGUSERNAME       = "your postgres username"
PGDATABASE       = "your postgres db name"
PGPASSWORD       = "your postgres password"
location         = "your location"

6- Create a file called terraform-prod.tfvars in the root folder

environment_name = "production"
vm_size          = "Standard_B2ms"
admin_username   = "your username"
admin_password   = "your password"
PGUSERNAME       = "your postgres username"
PGDATABASE       = "your postgres db name"
PGPASSWORD       = "your postgres password"
location         = "your location"

7- Create two workspaces (staging and production)

terraform workspace new "staging" 
terraform workspace new "production"

8- Run the following commands:

//select workspace
terraform workspace select staging
// init
terraform init
// plan
terraform plan --var-file=terraform-stage.tfvars
// apply
terraform apply --var-file=terraform-stage.tfvars -auto-approve

9- Like point 8 but this time with production parameters:

//select workspace
terraform workspace select production
// init
terraform init
// plan
terraform plan --var-file=terraform-prod.tfvars
// apply
terraform apply --var-file=terraform-prod.tfvars -auto-approve

10- Terraform part is done!
