 Hey together,

 I am working with ansible for a few days now and it is perfect and really 
 what I needed, but there are a few things I am not able to solute for 
 myself and where I have ( in my opinion ) ugly workarounds that should be 
 able to be done a lot smoother.


 Replies inline !


  


 *1.) Merging Variables per Playbook*


- I know that merging variables is possible with editing ansible.cfg
- I know, that a lot of playbooks do not use this behavior so 
enabling it could create problems 


 It's not really going to cause any problems, but it's more confusing than 
 it's worth for most people new to ansible - and most people don't need it.
  


- Is it somehow possible to create it just for my own playbooks? 


 It's set in ansible.cfg as hash_merge_behavior. 


- Reason:
- All my variables are build like this: 
   - bbnetz.PLAYBOOK.packages.[nano, screen, curl, ...] ( for example 
   ) set in the vars folder per distribution/version 
   - bbnetz.PLAYBOOK.settings.[database.*, vhost, defaultUser, ... ] 
   set in the defaults folder and also in my host_vars.

 Just as a workaround: I just renamed the bbnetz.PLAYBOOK.packages to 
 bbnetz_packages.PLAYBOOK, but this is not as clean as I would like to have 
 it.

 *2.) Creating Runtime variables*

 This is my set up:

- I tried to setup a PHP-FPM setup with different ports  
- I created for each php-fpm vhost a file in /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/ 
and name it HOSTNAME_PORTNUMBER where portnumber is 9000 + i.
- And here is where this ends. I am not able to figure out what my i 
is or how to add it to 9000. 


 Look into the set_fact module for exactly this.

 - set_fact: 
   x: {{ ((x|int) + 1) }}

 I'm being a little paranoid with the int casting, in case you have it as a 
 string somewhere.

 Etc.

  


 Just as workaround: I am working with PHP-FPM over Sockets for the 
 moment...

 *3.) Git Module and owners*

 This is one of my settings:

- I am connected as user bbringenberg to my test server
- I create a new user named openproject and want to create the github 
repo from openproject in /home/openproject as user openproject. 
- There is no attribute owner/group so this is not possible =(.


 There's a better approach here.   You could sudo_user: username to that 
 user and check that thing out as you.

 You could also just set this after the fact, but it's cleaner to do the 
 other.   This is the same reason the git command itself does not have owner 
 and group modes.
  


- I am also not able to configure the user for a new connection in my 
vars file


 I'm not sure what this part means.
  


 Just as a workaround: I am creating a copy of the gitrepo for the moment 
 and set the new owner there.

 *4.) How are you working with SSL Certs?*


- The last of my problems is, that I am not sure how to deploy SSL 
Certs 
- I could add them to my host_vars file, but that would make it 
really huge and as my configuration is in a locale git it would not make 
 it 
any more secure...
- I need to deploy them as files with gitignore or so... 
- How are you doing this?


 I'll let other people answer this part...
  


 Thanks for your help and have a very nice evening,


 You are welcome!  Hope the above helps!

It would be really cool if you'd be able to help me out here, because I 
have a lot of cool things todo with ansible =).
