A short tutorial on how to use Vault in your Ansible workflow. Ansible-vault allows you to more safely store sensitive information in a source code repository or on disk.

Working with ansible-vault

I've been using a lot of Ansible lately and while almost everything has been great, finding a clean way to implement ansible-vault wasn't immediately apparent.

What I decided on was the following: put your secret information into a vars file, reference that vars file from your task, and encrypt the whole vars file using ansible-vault encrypt.

Let's use an example: You're writing an Ansible role and want to encrypt the spoiler for the movie Aliens.

A first draft for a script, which converts a Kirby site into a static site. It's a rough first draft, so don't expect it to be perfect. Play with it, if you like it!
<?php
/**
* Instructions:
*
* 1. Put this into the document root of your Kirby site
* 2. Make sure to setup the base url for your site correctly
* 3. Run this script with `php statify.php` or open it in your browser
* 4. Upload all files and folders from static to your server
* 5. Test your site

Sass+Compass, Guard, LiveReload

This will enable Sass+Compass with LiveReload through Guard. (Guard screen cast)

You will also need a browser component to communicate with LiveReload. (browser extension, livereload.js)

If you prefer going through a GUI, that option is available. The following instructions is specific to Mac OS X and it works through the command line.

Note that this is not specific to Rails projects. This can work for any standalone front-end project.
