The aim of this project is to deploy Grafana on Vagrant instances.
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
What things you need to run this Ansible playbook :
- Vagrant must be installed on your computer
- Update the Vagrant file based on your computer (CPU, memory), if needed
- Update the operating system to deploy in the Vagrant file (default: Ubuntu)
- Download the Ansible requirements:
$ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml
A good point with Vagrant is that you can create, update and destroy all architecture easily with some commands.
Be aware that you need to be in the Vagrant directory to be able to run the commands.
To deploy the Grafana client on baremetal, you have to configure the variable grafana_install_type to baremetal in the file grafana.yml before running the playbook :
[...]
vars:
grafana_install_type: baremetal
[...]
Once it's done, you just have to provision the Vagrant instance and the Ansible playbook will automatically be called :
$ vagrant up
If everything run as expected, you should be able to reach the web interface : http://10.0.0.11:3000/
To deploy the Grafana client on Docker, you have to configure the variable grafana_install_type to docker in the file grafana.yml before running the playbook :
[...]
vars:
grafana_install_type: docker
[...]
Once it's done, you just have to provision the Vagrant instance and the Ansible playbook will automatically be called :
$ vagrant up
If everything run has expected, you should be able to reach the web interface : http://10.0.4.161:3000/
To destroy the Vagrant resources created, just run this command :
$ vagrant destroy
This section list some simple command to use and manage the playbook and the Vagrant hosts.
To update the Grafana configuration with Ansible, you just have to run the Ansible playbook grafana.yml with this command :
$ ansible-playbook grafana.yml
To update the Grafana configuration with Vagrant, you just have to run provisioning part of the Vagrant file :
$ vagrant provision
To be able to connect to a Vagrant instance, you should use the CLI which is configured to automatically use the default SSH key :
$ vagrant ssh grafana01
