project_deploy

Deploy a project with Ansible

Changelog 4.0.0 BC BREAK. Set your galaxy version to v3.2.0 for Ansible 2.3 or less.

  • replaced deprecated "include" with "include_tasks".

Changelog 3.2.0

  • added the variables "project_clean" and "project_keep_releases".

Changelog 3.1.1

  • Removed dependency on Ansible role F500.project_deploy_module (it is an Ansible Modules Extra module now)

Changelog 3.1.0

  • added option to set the release name explicitly. This allows for having the same release across all nodes.

Changelog 3.0.0 BC BREAK. Set your galaxy version to v2.2.2 for Ansible 1.9 or less.

  • Ansible V2 compatibility: Changed the hook mechanism. This is a breaking change with regards to Ansible v1.9, so until you upgrade to Ansible 2.0 you should lock the version of this role to "v2.2.2".

Changelog 2.2.0

  • added hooks. This feature allows for inclusion of arbitrary tasks at certain points in the process.

Changelog 2.1.0

  • added option to copy Composer, NPM and Bower folders from previous release

Changelog 2.0.0 BC BREAK. Set your galaxy version to v1.0.0 for the old deploy module.

  • remove the deploy module (it has been added to a separate module in f500.project_deploy_module)
  • module renamed to deploy_helper

Changelog 1.0.0

  • added parameter unfinished_filename
  • added fact deploy.unfinished_filename
  • added state=query
  • added project_unwanted_items
  • added npm and bower package manager support
  • added 'type' option to project_shared_children (file/directory)
  • added a "unfinished_filename" to indicate a deploying state
  • moved project_pre_build_commands after files/template copy
  • changed state=cleanup to state=clean
  • removed system folder and system_path variable
  • removed "project_build_path"
  • moved source folder to project_root/shared/source
  • removed project_remove_git_folder (see project_unwanted_items)

Requirements

Nothing beyond a remote server with ssh access and python. It should work on any linux/unix OS although we've only tested it on Debian and Ubuntu.

Please let us know your experiences so we can update the platforms.

Role Variables


These variables must be set, they have no defaults:

project_root: "path_to_project_on_the_target_machine"
project_deploy_strategy: "git", "synchronize" or "s3"

This variable allows for setting your own release name instead of the generated timestamp. When deploying to multiple nodes, setting this will keep the same release name between all nodes, simplifying automated rollbacks (you can use the set_fact module to create unique name at runtime).

project_release: "v3.12.6"

At certain key points in the role an option exists to include a task file of your own. In order to use this option, create a tasks file and set the corresponding hook variable to its location:

project_deploy_hook_on_initialize
project_deploy_hook_on_update_source
project_deploy_hook_on_create_build_dir
project_deploy_hook_on_perform_build
project_deploy_hook_on_make_shared_resources
project_deploy_hook_on_finalize

Example:

project_deploy_hook_on_perform_build: "{{ playbook_dir }}/deploy_hooks/perform-build.yml"

If you use the "git" strategy, you must also set a repository:

project_git_repo: "git_repository"

you can set the git ref to deploy (can be a branch, tag or commit hash), defaults to "master":

project_version: "master"

When using the synchonize method, we recommend using a .rsync-filter file in the source folder, to exclude .git and other unneeded data to be transferred.

If you use the "synchronize" strategy, you can set a timeout for the synchonize module:

project_deploy_synchronize_timeout: 30

and you can also tell synchronize to delete files that don't exist on source:

project_deploy_synchronize_delete: true  # defaults to false

you must set the path to your local source (default assumes the playbook in /ansible/):

project_local_path: "../"

If you use the "s3" strategy, you have to install python-boto on the target host and set AWS credentials

aws_access_key: 'ACCESS_KEY'
aws_secret_key: 'SECRET_KEY'

You also have to set s3 parameters, region, bucket, path and filename:

project_s3_region: 'eu-west-1'
project_s3_bucket: 'my-bucket'
project_s3_path: '/my-app/'
project_s3_filename: my-app-master.war

The source_path is used to fetch the tags from git, or synchronise via rsync. This way you do not have to download/sync the entire project on every deploy:

project_source_path: "{{ project_root }}/shared/source"

Files or folders to remove from the source when deploying:

project_unwanted_items: [ '.git' ]

DEPRECATED The build_path is used to build your project in, prior to moving it to the release folder. If it exists, this path will be deleted before a new build is started (under the assumption that it contains a failed previous build)

project_build_path: "{{ project_root }}/build"

The project does not assume any package manager, you can enable whichever one(s) you use:

project_has_composer: false
project_has_npm: false
project_has_bower: false

Default values to run composer install:

project_composer_binary: composer.phar
project_command_for_composer_install: "{{ project_composer_binary }} install --no-ansi --no-dev --no-interaction --no-progress --optimize-autoloader --no-scripts"

Default values to run npm install:

project_npm_binary: npm
project_command_for_npm_install: "{{ project_npm_binary }} install --production"

Default values to run bower install:

project_bower_binary: bower
project_command_for_bower_install: "{{ project_bower_binary }} install --production --config.interactive=false"

To speed up composer/npm/bower install it is possible to copy the vendor/node_modules/component directories from the previous release:

project_copy_previous_composer_vendors: true
project_copy_previous_npm_modules: true
project_copy_previous_bower_components: true

You can also change the path of the installed vendors (relative to {{ deploy_helper.new_release_path }}):

project_composer_vendor_path: vendor
project_npm_modules_path: node_modules
project_bower_components_path: components

The project_shared_path is used to set the path for your shared assets. Required: No Default: "{{ project_root }}/shared"

project_shared_path: "/var/data/example"

All the files to copy to the remote system on deploy. These could contain config files:

project_files: []

Example:

project_files:
  - name: "some_file"           // optional, for your own reference and readability
    src: "local-path-to-file"   // relative or absolute, just like Ansible
    dest: "remote-path-to-file"
  - name: "some_other_file"
    src: "local-path-to-other-file"
    dest: "remote-path-to-other-file"

All the templates to copy to the remote system on deploy. These could contain config files. Works the same as the project_files:

project_templates: []

The shared_children is a list of all files/folders in your project that need to be linked to someplace outside the release. For example a logging directory or an uploads folder. These live in "{{ project_shared_path }}":

project_shared_children: []

Example:

project_shared_children:
  - path: "/app/sessions"
    src: "sessions"
  - path: "/web/uploads"
    src: "uploads"

The project_environment is a list of environment variables added to the various *_commands:

project_environment: {}

Example:

project_environment:
  SYMFONY_ENV: "prod"

DEPRECATED, PLEASE USE HOOKS There are a few moments in this role where arbitrary command(s) can be run. These commands receive the "project_environment" so deploys for different stages can be done by changing this:

project_pre_build_commands: []
project_post_build_commands: []

Example:

project_post_build_commands:
  - "app/console cache:clear"
  - "app/console doctrine:migrations:migrate --no-interaction"
  - "app/console assets:install"
  - "app/console assetic:dump"

At the end of the role, the "current" symlink is set to the release. If you need to perform your own actions before this happens, set "project_finalize" to false:

 project_finalize: true

Example (before v2.0.0):

When you're ready, perform the symlink task yourself (in post_tasks for example):

- file: src={{ deploy.new_release_path }} dest={{ deploy.current_path }} state=link

Example (after v2.0.0):

When you're ready, finalize the deploy with the module:

- deploy_helper: path={{ project_root }} release={{ deploy_helper.new_release }} state=finalize

If you do want to finalize and have the role switch the "current" symlink, but don't want to clean up old releases, set "project_clean" to false:

project_clean: true

Or if you want to keep less or more than 5 releases, set "project_keep_releases" to the desired number (minimum of 1):

project_keep_releases: 5

Dependencies

Before v2.0.0 : none After v2.0.0 : f500.project_deploy_module After v3.1.1 : none

Example Playbook

Because of the larger number of variables involved, we prefer to add them to the playbook as vars

Before you use this role, be sure to prepare the remote. If you want to deploy from a git repo, you need the remote user to be able to clone the project (with SSH keys for example).

- name: Deploy role example
  hosts: servers
  remote_user: deploy

  vars:
    project_root: /home/deploy/
    project_deploy_strategy: synchronize

  roles:
     - f500.project_deploy

You can also use the deploy module included with the role to clean up old releases (this is done on finalize by default):

  post_tasks:
    - name: Remove old releases
      deploy_helper: "path={{ project_root }} state=clean"
