NextCloud on K3s with Ansible, Vagrant, Terraform, and Helm
This repository provides all the necessary configuration files to spin up a NextCloud environment on K3s. The environment is intended to be used as a starting template for NextCloud deployments, but it is NOT PRODUCTION READY.
The setup is done using a combination of Vagrant, Ansible, Terraform, Helm, and NextCloud. The goal is to automate the deployment of NextCloud on K3s, making it easy to get started with a working NextCloud environment.
Technologies Used Vagrant: Creates a small virtual machine (VM) in VirtualBox, which acts as the server for K3s. The basic Ansible configurations are done here.
Ansible: The playbooks are used to configure the following:
fail2ban for SSH K3s and Helm installation NextCloud Helm repository setup NextCloud deployment based on playbook variables and templates. Terraform (optional): This tool can be used to manage the infrastructure for the deployment, such as creating and managing virtual machines.
Helm: A package manager for Kubernetes, used to manage and deploy NextCloud in the K3s environment.
NextCloud: A self-hosted file sync and share solution, providing access to your data and files from anywhere.
To use this repository, you will need to have Vagrant, Ansible, Terraform, and Helm installed on your system.
Clone the repository to your local machine:
$ git clone https://github.com/daverod24/k3s-poc.gitNavigate to the repository directory:
$ cd k3s-poc
Use Vagrant to spin up the virtual machine:
$ vagrant up
Use Ansible to run the playbooks:
$ vagrant provision
$ vagrant ssh
Once the deployment is complete, access the NextCloud interface in your browser at http://localhost:80 or http://<server-ip>:<port>. The IP and port can be found in the ansible/vars/variables.yml file.
The basic setup can be changed in the ansible/vars/variables.yml file. This is a good starting point for high-level configuration, but it has limitations. If you need to dig deeper into the deployment, you can look into the ansible/templates/chart-values.j2 file or refer to the official repository of the Helm chart.
