Update Variables

Notes

Sunbird have 2 repositories.

1. Public
2. Private

While private(sunbird-devops) repository contains all inventories and group vars, public(project-sunbird) contains source code of infrastructure.

All of these points are applicable to dev/staging environments

Variables can be found in below locations

• project-sunbird/sunbird-devops/roles/stack-sunbird/defaults/main.yml

• ekstep/sunbird-devops/inventories/{{ env }}/group_vars/main.yml

• ekstep/sunbird-devops/inventories/{{ env }}/secrets.yml

• project-sunbird/sunbird-devops/ansible/roles/stack-sunbird/templates/{{ service_name }}.env

Variables: General guidelines

If you're updating a new variable in the code, then please follow guidelines.

• All user defined variables must be initialized in project-sunbird/sunbird-devops/roles/stack-sunbird/defaults/main.yml

  example

  sunbird_actor_system_name: ""
  

• Static values can be hard-coded in project-sunbird/sunbird-devops/ansible/roles/stack-sunbird/templates/{{ service_name }}.env

  example

  sunbird_version: "1.2.3"
  

• All secrets must be preceded with vault_ and declare in sunbird-devops/ansible/roles/stack-sunbird/templates/{{ service_name }}.env

  example

  application_password: "{{vault_application_password}}"
  

  Actual secret have to be defined in ekstep/sunbird-devops/inventories/{{ env }}/secrets.yml

  ansible-vault edit ekstep/sunbird-devops/inventories/{{ env }}/secrets.yml
  
  vault_application_password: sample_password_123
