Opscode Chef cookbook for deploying SugarCRM CE

Primary LanguageRuby

DESCRIPTION: ↑

The cookbook downloads SugarCRM Community Edition and configures SugarCRM’s silent installer for easy installation. The user must go to server/sugarcrm/ to complete installation.

REQUIREMENTS: ↑

Opscode cookbooks, github.com/opscode/cookbooks/tree/master: ↑

  • mysql

  • php

  • apache2

  • opensssl

  • git

Platforms ↑

So far was tested on Ubuntu 10.04, but should work against any platform supported by Opscode apache2, php, and mysql cookbooks.

ATTRIBUTES: ↑

  • sugarcrm - sets the admin password for SugarCRM instance (default is admin)

  • sugarcrm - Subdirectory to place sugarcrm files. Default is ‘sugarcrm’ under Apache’s webroot (configured in Opscode apach2 cookbook)

  • sugarcrm[:database] - sugarcrm will use this MySQL database to store its data.

  • sugarcrm[:user] - sugarcrm will connect to MySQL using this user.

  • sugarcrm[:password] - Password for the sugarcrm MySQL user. The default is a randomly generated string.

The random generation is handled with the secure_password method in the openssl cookbook which is a cryptographically secure random generator and not predictable like the random method in the ruby standard library.

USAGE: ↑

Uses Opscode mysql, php, apache2 cookbooks to configure LAMP stack and git to checkout the latest stable build of SugarCRM CE. Cookbook just stages installation, setting values in config_si.php, so the first time the user hits the instance installation will finish (no need to answer any questions!).

Just add the recipe to your node or role and let Chef do the rest.

You can login to application using ‘admin’ username and password to create additional users. Default admin user’s password can be overridden at the role or node level.
