chef-elefant
Description
This is a Chef recipe for installing
the Elefant CMS and associated LAMP stack
(Apache2, MySQL, SQLite, and PHP).
Requirements
Platform
- Debian, Ubuntu
Tested on:
- Ubuntu 12.04
Cookbooks
- mysql
- php
- apache2
- openssl
Permissions
Elefant requires write permissions on certain folders such as the cache
folder,
but deploying to a VirtualBox virtual machine currently has the limitation that
you can't modify synced folder permissions. The workaround is to set the :nfs => true
flag on the config.vm.synced_folder
setting like this:
config.vm.synced_folder "www", "/var/www/elefant", :nfs => true
This also has the benefit of being generally faster than the default synced folders.
Unfortunately, NFS is not supported on Windows. Windows users may want to try the
Vagrant::Mirror plugin, although
I have not tested whether it will work. If you get it running, please consider
sharing the steps it took to help others.
Note that NFS support also requires root privileges on the host machine, as the
vagrant up
command will request your administrative privileges in order to modify
/etc/exports
and to restart the NFS server daemon.
Attributes
-
node['elefant']['version']
- Set the version to download. Using 'latest' (the default) will install from the latest master on Github. Use underscores instead of spaces in the version name (e.g., '1_3_6_beta') -

. -
node['elefant']['server_aliases']

Usage
Add the "elefant" recipe to your node's run list or role, or include the recipe in another cookbook.
To add this recipe, clone this repository into your cookbooks folder and name the folder 'elefant'.
Chef will also install and configure the mysql, php, and apache2 recipes in addition to Elefant.
To complete the installation, visit http://hostname/install/
(change the hostname if you change the attribute values).
Sample Vagrantfile
Here is a sample Vagrantfile you can use to quickly get Elefant running:
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config| config.vm.box = "precise64" config.vm.network :private_network, ip: "192.168.56.101" config.vm.synced_folder "www", "/var/www/elefant", :nfs => true config.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef| chef.cookbooks_path = "chef/cookbooks" chef.roles_path = "chef/roles" chef.data_bags_path = "chef/data_bags" chef.add_recipe "apt" chef.add_recipe "vim" chef.add_recipe "postfix" chef.add_recipe "mysql::server" chef.add_recipe "sqlite" chef.add_recipe "php" chef.add_recipe "php::module_mysql" chef.add_recipe "php::module_curl" chef.add_recipe "php::module_gd" chef.add_recipe "php::module_memcache" chef.add_recipe "php::module_sqlite3" chef.add_recipe "apache2" chef.add_recipe "elefant" chef.json = { :mysql => { :server_debian_password => "change-me", :server_root_password => "change-me", :server_repl_password => "change-me" } } end end
