Milestone end of January

Objective

Open up all infrastructure scripts, and rework in a way such that we can work on a component (e.g. blog using WordPress) locally or with a minimal setup.

Priorities

  1. EVERYTHING through Git master branch
  2. Each component can be deployed with one salt state.sls run
  3. Each component uses last version we can support (e.g. WordPress, BugGenie, etc)
  4. Components runs correctly locally with basic config, salt applies environment specific
  5. Publish on public GitHub states + pillars

Definition of done

  1. At least 3 components (e.g. annotation-server, homepage, wiki)
  2. Project Makefile default rule should fetch dependencies (bower, npm, composer, etc) and allow web app to run locally
  3. Project Vagrantfile runs minimal VM for development
  4. Project configuration use sensible defaults for local/vagrant development
  5. Salt writes config with appropriate keys/passwords externally

Candidates

Objective in picking candidates with different stacks so we can replicate on similar easily.

  1. Blog (WordPress)
  2. Docs (MediaWiki)
  3. Annotation service (Hypothesis)
  4. Homepage
  5. Account system
  6. Discourse
  7. Piwik
