obj_static_site

Object Storage Static Site

This example is intended to provide usage examples for the Linode Ansible Collection and is not production ready.

This example provisions a simple static site using Linode Object Storage.

Usage

In order to run this playbook, you must create a Linode Personal Access Token.

While in the obj_static_site directory, run the following:

export LINODE_TOKEN=mytoken
export ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING=False
ansible-playbook deploy.yml

This will execute the playbook, including provisioning an Object Storage Bucket and configuring it to serve a static site.

After the playbook has finished running, the website should be accessible at the Static Site Access URL found in the playbook run logs. This URL will automatically resolve to the contents of files/public/index.html. If the requested URL is not found, the page will automatically resolve to the contents of files/public/404.html.

This example can be configured by editing the config.yml file.
