nginx Ansible playbook

This role will install nginx from the nginx PPA. It is very basic, and the possible configuration pretty limited.

The intent is to have a basic config in place. Later, in your specific roles, you just need to add entries in /etc/nginx/sites-available, link the file in /etc/nginx/sites-enable and restart nginx.

php5-fpm can be used in conjunction with this role.

Requirements

None

Role Variables

• nginx_root: web directory root for 'default' vhost (default: /var/lib/nginx/)
• nginx_worker_connections: sets the maximum number of simultaneous connections that can be opened by a worker process (default: 1024)
• nginx_mode: whether we'll run php5-fpm (default: php5-fpm)
• nginx_add_default: do we add a default vhost (default: yes)

Example Playbook

Specs

To run tests locally in a Vagrant machine, just hit:

vagrant up
vagrant ssh -c specs

If you want to run the test playbook fast (i.e., without re-installing Ansible), just run:

vagrant ssh -c 'specs -p'

There is a sample Guardfile if you want to work on the role in TDD mode. You need to install guard and guard-shell gems, and then run guard:

gem install guard
gem install guard-shell
guard

Now the specs will run whenever you save a file in the role, the specs will be run.
