Ansible Role: Passenger

This role installs Passenger (with Nginx) on RedHat/CentOS (coming soon) or Debian/Ubuntu Linux servers.

Requirements

No requirements needed.

Role Variables

Here are the variables you can use, along with their default values (check defaults/main.yml):

• passenger_server_name: www.example.com
  The name of your server (used in Nginx settings).

• passenger_app_root: /opt/example/public
  The root folder for your application (like the public folder in a Rails app).

• passenger_app_env: production
  The environment that Passenger will use.

• passenger_root: /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/phusion_passenger/locations.ini

• passenger_ruby: /usr/bin/ruby
  Settings for Passenger configuration in nginx.conf. These should work correctly in most cases, but if you have a custom Ruby installation, the path might be different.

• nginx_worker_processes: "{{ ansible_processor_vcpus | default(ansible_processor_count) }}"

• nginx_worker_connections: "768"

• nginx_keepalive_timeout: "65"

• nginx_remove_default_vhost: true
  These are settings for Nginx.
