lampsible

Features

• Automatically install the right version of PHP, based on the remote Ubuntu version. User can still manually set the version with the --php-version flag, and will be warned if they are trying to install a version that won't work out of the box.
• User can add custom environment variables as a comma separated value to the new --extra-env-vars flag. If installing a Laravel app, they will be appended to the app's .env file, otherwise to Apache's envvar in /etc/apache2/envvars.

Install the new version by running python -m pip install --upgrade lampsible or by manually installing the attached wheel file.

First "stable release" of Lampsible - LAMP stacks with Ansible

A couple years ago, I hacked together some Ansible playbooks to help me install WordPress sites on Linux servers running Apache. In the last few months, I managed to refactor my old Ansible stuff into a CLI tool that can handle much of what one would expect from a good old fashioned LAMP stack, and it's already proven to be useful in some projects that I'm currently involved in. I hope that someone else finds this helpful :-)

Certbot is now fully working. Whether you're installing a simple Apache server, or a WordPress site, you can fully enable SSL for your site by passing --ssl-certbot

This release offers some important security improvements:

• Install fail2ban by default on all servers.
• In WordPress sites, block access to the insecure endpoint xmlrpc.php by default.

I like to use Ansible for automating various server installations, and I've used it in numerous projects, and it has always worked like a charm.

I've recently started to clean up / refactor / package some of the scripts and playbooks I've used over the years into simple command line tools that abstract much of the Ansible specific details into a simple CLI.

With Lampsible v0.10, I have developed such a tool, and I hope that someone finds it helpful ^_^

The idea is that you can install it locally, and if you have some VPS server where you want to host a web site or application, you can simply run something like lampsible youruser your.server.com wordpress --database-name some-database locally, and it does everything for you.

For more info, see the README, or run lampsible --help.
