# Homelab Ansible Playbooks
This repository contains Ansible playbooks and roles I use to manage my NAS and some VMs 👨‍💻.
This project is designed for personal/familial scale maintenance, if you find this useful for your use, want to share advises or security concerns, feel free to drop me a line.
This is a good playground to learn and I encourage you to adapt these roles to your needs. While they might not be production-ready for all environments, I'm open to adapting them for [Ansible Galaxy](<(https://galaxy.ansible.com)>) if there's community interest!
## Architecture Overview
**Platform Support:** Arch Linux, Debian/Ubuntu
**Core Design:**
- A unique system administrator (`{{ ansible_user }}`)
- Security hardened sshd
- Shared services pattern: Single PostgreSQL and Valkey (Redis) instances serve all services
- Rootless Podman: Containers run as `{{ ansible_user }}` (daemonless, `sudo podman ps` shows nothing)
- User systemd services: `systemctl --user status <service>` with lingering enabled
- Nginx reverse proxy for web services
**Available Services:**
| Service | Description |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| dns | Unbound caching DNS + Pi-hole ad blocking + VPN resolver |
| nfs | Network file system server |
| zfs | ZFS installation and management |
| uptime-kuma | Uptime monitoring |
| ntfy | Notification server |
| gitea | Git server |
| immich | Photo management |
| static-web | Static website hosting |
| vpn | WireGuard server |
## Requirements
Base tools:
```sh
# linux
apt-get install ansible ansible-lint ansible-galaxy
pacman -Syu ansible ansible-lint ansible-galaxy
# macos
brew install ansible ansible-lint ansible-galaxy
# windows
choco install ansible ansible-lint ansible-galaxy
```
Other roles:
```sh
ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml
```
## Usage
If you have a password on your ssh key `--ask-pass` is recommended, `--ask-become-pass` is always asked in these roles, as most tasks require elevated privileges. These are dropped time to time when the default user privilege is enough.
```sh
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts.yml playbook.yml \
--ask-pass \
--ask-become-pass
```
You can also call you ssh agent to unlock your key prior to simplify your calls:
```sh
ssh-add ~/.ssh/my_key
# unlock it
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts.yml playbook.yml \
--ask-become-pass
```
## Target configuration
Requirements:
- sshd up and running
- public key copied:
```sh
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub username@remote_host
```
- python3 installed (`pacman -Syu python3`)
## Developping
Linting:
```sh
ansible-lint
npx prettier --write .
```
