## Instructions for running this playbook
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-11-27 17:25:20 +00:00
|
|
|
- Copy group_vars/all.sample to group_vars/all and edit it to specify the
|
|
|
|
|
database name you wish to use with Mastodon. **The PostgreSQL database role
|
|
|
|
|
will drop this database in preparation for Mastodon's database setup so make
|
|
|
|
|
sure this is not a database you are currently using**
|

|
|
|
- Copy roles/mastodon-config/templates/.env.production.sample to
|
|
|
|
|
roles/mastodon-config/templates/.env.production, edit with all
|
|
|
|
|
relevant details. (SMTP details are probably the only required one,
|
|
|
|
|
the others you can leave be)
|
|
|
|
|
- Make a hosts file that looks like this (**Make sure that the nodename
|
|
|
|
|
here is the domain/sub-domain you want for your Mastodon instance, we
|
|
|
|
|
use it as a variable**):
