DebOps is an open-source collection of Ansible playbooks that helps system administrators to automate the setup and maintenance of their infrastructure. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing DebOps on Manjaro.
Before we begin, please make sure you have the following prerequisites:
To install DebOps on Manjaro, we first need to clone the DebOps repository using Git. Open your terminal and execute the following command:
git clone https://github.com/debops/debops.git /etc/ansible/debops
This will create a 'debops' directory in the '/etc/ansible/' directory, which contains all of the DebOps files.
Next, we need to install the dependencies required by DebOps. In your terminal, execute the following command to install the required dependencies:
sudo pacman -S ruby python-pip python-jinja python-netaddr python-psycopg2 python-prettytable python-markupsafe
Now, we need to update the Ansible configuration to include the DebOps roles. Open your terminal and execute the following command to open the '/etc/ansible/ansible.cfg' file:
sudo nano /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
Add the following line to the end of the file:
ansible_roles_path = /etc/ansible/debops/ansible/roles
Save the file and exit.
DebOps provides a 'debops' command-line tool that helps configuring the DebOps installation. Execute the following command to configure DebOps:
sudo debops
The command will guide you through the configuration process, which includes setting up the SSH key and default accounts.
Finally, we can verify the installation of DebOps using the following command:
sudo debops --check
This command will run a "check" mode, which verifies the configuration and checks for any missing dependencies.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed DebOps on Manjaro.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install DebOps on your Manjaro system. Using DebOps, you can now automate the setup and maintenance of your infrastructure with ease.
