A wordpress environment to deploy on exoscale or any cloud-init compatible cloud with plain vanilla Ubuntu instances.
This cookbook will leverage userdata extensibility of CloudStack and the features of cloud-init to bootstrap a fully fonctionnal Wordpress install which IS NOT a clone.
- Userdata will be filled with a script
- Script will be called on first boot by cloud-init
- A puppet repository will be pulled on the instance
- The script will launch Puppet and apply the manifest and eventually after PHP, NGINX and MYSQL installation pull a fresh copy of Wordpress and install it.
Keep it mind that it is possible to go much further in automation deployment.
Launch a new Ubuntu 12.04 LTS instance with the service offering you wish. Insert it in a security group or with firewall rules which enable port 80/http.
In the User Data tab, input the script below:
#!/bin/sh
set -e -x
apt-get --yes --quiet update
apt-get --yes --quiet install git puppet-common
#
# Fetch puppet configuration from public git repository.
#
mv /etc/puppet /etc/puppet.orig
git clone https://github.com/exoscale/exoscale-wordpress.git /etc/puppet
#
# Run puppet.
#
puppet apply /etc/puppet/manifests/init.pp
Point your browser to your instance public IP address and you should be asked for an admin email and password. If not the default user and password is admin/wordpress
For anything other than testing, we recommend forking this repository and modify the config/common.csv file with your details. Of course also alter the git clone argument passed to your instance via user-data to match your personal repository.
To modify your configuration, clone this very repository and adjust files and manifests accordingly. Do not forget to replace the URL in the userdata script.
- Salt wp-config.php
Better mysql DB security
