Basic lamp role (archived, splitted into separate roles)

Build Status

Update Dec 2018

Actually, this role is combination of sa-mysql, sa-apache, sa-apache-php.
Also, if you are looking into php in fpm mode, that might want to look into sa-nginx and sa-php-fpm.

Background

Challenges to address

  • Optionally install MySQL (you might use external database)
  • Install Lamp

Let's go step by step.

Describing desired components

Let's list both package dependencies and needed php extensions.

  pkg_dependencies:
    - git
    - curl
    - python-dev
    - libmysqlclient-dev

  php_extensions:
    - php5-mysql
    - php5-intl
    - php5-xmlrpc
    - php5-curl
    - php5-gd

Optional MySQL installation

In order to install MySQl, you will need to specify desired mysql root credentials only.

  mysql_host: "127.0.0.1"
  mysql_root_user: root
  mysql_root_password: SOMEROOTSECUREPASSWORD

LAMP installation

For LAMP we have ability to install apache either in worker or prefork mode.
This has impact on PHP: it will be installed either as PHP-FPM or via mod_php apache module.
Nowadays worker is preferable.

  apache_mode: worker # use prefork or worker variables
  apache2_disable_default: true

  php_family: default # 5.4 | 5.5 | 5.6 | 7.0 | default

Usage example

     - {
         role: "sa-lamp",
         option_install_mysql: false
       }
