#Intro

This suite of playbooks should launch the c3.large EC2 and db.t2.small RDS instance, download and install Atlassian Stash, create a DNS record in Route53 and set up Postfix to work with SES.

#Prerequisites

The AWS-related playbooks require you to have the ec2-cli installed with working credentials.

A Key Pair has been set up in your AWS account.

A valid Atlassian Stash license (works with the evaluation key as well).

This repo was built while running these versions:

#How-To

There are two files handling sensitive info. I suggest you encrypt them with ansible-vault. Be sure to edit them and put in your own values: group_vars/local

db_master_password:

and

group_vars/all

smtp_password:
smtp_username:
ses_relayer_endpoint:
ses_2ndrelayer_endpoint:

And of course, edit the values in host_vars/localhost to match your own.

Finally, the provisioning can be done by running:

ansible-playbook vpc.yml --ask-vault-pass

Subsequent runs of the stash.yml playbook (i.e. in case you already have the Server ready) can be achieved by running:

ansible-playbook stash.yml --ask-vault-pass

#Steps after the playbooks completes successfully / while playbook is running

Once you set up AWS SES manually in your AWS account, don't forget to configure the e-mail settings in Stash.

Only thing you need to do is to set the "Hostname" to "localhost" (without quotes).

"E-mail from" can be something relevant (mind the subdomain). Please leave ALL other fields blank. Finally, you can test your settings.

#To Dos Make the Postfix role cross-platform.

Better naming of variables and cleanup of plays.
