Ansible playbooks and scripts for deploying bots to Openshift

tl;dr How to deploy

1. in vars copy vars/template.yml to {deployment}.yml where {deployment} is one of prod, stage, dev, test
2. in vars/{deployment}.yml fill in missing values
3. DEPLOYMENT={deployment} make deploy

What's in here

• playbooks - Ansible playbooks.
• vars - Variable file(s). See section below for more info.
• templates - Openshift resource configuration files (templates).
• run-deployment-in-container.sh - Run Ansible deploy playbook in a container.
• run-cleanup-in-container.sh - Run Ansible cleanup playbook in a container.

Variable files

vars/template.yml is a variable file template.

You have to copy it to prod.yml, stage.yml, dev.yml, test.yml depending on what environment you want to deploy to.

For example if you want to deploy to a cluster started on your machine with oc cluster up, you just cp template.yml dev.yml and in dev.yml you set host: https://172.17.0.1:8443. Then you run DEPLOYMENT=dev make deploy.

If you want to deploy to 'staging environment', you cp template.yml stage.yml and in stage.yml you set host: your-staging-cluster-url. Then you run DEPLOYMENT=stage make deploy.

The ansible playbook then includes one of the variable files depending on the value of DEPLOYMENT environment variable and processes all the templates with variables defined in the file.

If you want to remove all objects from the deployment (project) run e.g. DEPLOYMENT=dev make cleanup.
