Amazon Linux 2 WorkSpace - PHP development environment - Ansible playbook

About

NOTE: This project is deprecated and superseded by ECGALAXY components.

This Ansible playbook installs a working PHP development environment on
Amazon Linux 2 WorkSpaces.

It currently provides:

• PHP 5.4 to 8.1 NTS (default: 7.4) and PHP-FPM
• PHP OCI8 extension and Oracle Instant Client
• Git
• Apache 2.4
• MariaDB 5.5
• SQLite 3
• Composer
• PhpStorm (license not included)
• Docker and Docker Compose

PHP packages are provided by Remi’s RPM repository.

Usage

• If Ansible is not installed yet on the control machine, install it with:
  sudo amazon-linux-extras install ansible2
• Update the php_version and php_fpm_port values in roles/common/defaults/main.yml according to your needs.
• If you want to install the environment on multiple workspaces, create a hosts file listing your inventory.
• If you want to install the environment on the local workspace only, you do not need to create a hosts file; simply replace hosts by hosts.localhost in the line below.
• Execute the playbook: ansible-playbook -i hosts site.yml --ask-pass --ask-become-pass.
• After execution of the playbook, you may need to log out then log in for the PhpStorm entry to appear in the Applications menu.
• The playbook can be executed multiple times with different values, which means you can install and use different PHP versions on the same environment (for instance 7.4, 8.0 and 8.1), see module load and module unload commands.

Optional

You can remove ‘roles’ you do not need by editing the site.yml file.

You can also limit the playbook execution to a specific role by using its tag, for instance:

ansible-playbook -i hosts.localhost -t docker site.yml --ask-become-pass
