Getting Started

Refer Gitbook Docs for more details and how to deploy manually

Ansible automation works well, if all services are intended to deploy on single box. Since I have only one machine, don't have to worry about the docker volumes, all of my docker volumes stored on single SSD mounted to host.

• Follow prerequisite manual steps to prepare Pi
• Browse vars.yml to configuration

$ git clone https://github.com/veerendra2/raspberrypi-homeserver.git
$ cd raspberrypi-homeserver
# review vars.yml and inventory.yml and run
$ ansible-playbook main.yml

NOTE

• This setup is created to deploy all services on single node docker swarm cluster. If you want to use this setup on multi node swarm cluster, there are some additional tweaks required like
  • Change placement

    ...
      deploy:
        replicas: 1
        placement:
          constraints: [node.role == manager]
    ...

• Currently I'm using duckdns sub-domain (Refer example -> services/traefik/docker-stack.yml#32). Refer my blog post to get more info.
• Update docker volume mount paths.
