ITDRC Snap-IT Cookbook

This cookbook will install and configure Snap-IT,

Simple standalone server install

  1. Provision a dedicated debian 8/8.5 64bit machine, this can be virtual or bare metal.

  2. If this machine will be on the public internet, ensure it has a proper DNS name.

  3. Run the install script.

wget -qO-  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DoctorOgg/chef-itdrc-snap-it/master/chef-solo-install/install.sh  | sudo bash
  1. Configure your chef settings stored in /root/itdrc-sanp-it-installer/solo.json

NOTE: if your machine is accessible from the internet, you should configure the following.

"letsencrypt": {
  "contact": "mailto:[email protected]",
  "self-signed": false
},

This will enable us to ask for a signed SSL certificate from https://letsencrypt.org. If your machine is not on the public internet you should set "self-signed": true, this will generate a self-signed SSL certificate instead.

Additionally, it is critical to configure the app_url

"app_url": "https://example.com",

if you do not have an DNS name use the servers IP address.

  1. Run Chef solo (as root)
(cd /root/itdrc-sanp-it-installer && ./run-chef.sh )

NOTE: for a full list of settings you can set in solo.json, you can look at the default attributes for this cookbook.
