Windows IIS Example

[sbtaylor15]

Start with basic start/stop website

[sbtaylor15]

@piyush94 - what restart process do you want to use?

1. Send files to server in staging area
2. Stop Website
3. Copy files from staging to web root
4. Start Website

Or

1. Send files to server in staging area
2. Copy files from staging to web root
3. Stop Website
4. Start Website

CC: @svisagan83

[sbtaylor15]

First process for restart

[sbtaylor15]

@piyush94 - Please pull the latest docker image. Also, here are the procedures to import into your database. Goto the Functions & Procedures Explorer tab -> choose GLOBAL -> right click "Import a Function or Procedure into this Domain"

procs.zip

Next, configure the RunAnsibleAction as follows.

Next configure the Component Attributes. Don't forget to setup a Component Item for the site.zip

@sbtaylor15 It's working.

@sbtaylor15 Just one thing, i added one more playbook to add windows firewall rule. It works if it is the single component inside the application but gives error if i add the above IIS playbook as well in the application flow.

@sbtaylor15 Playbook:

https://github.com/piyush94/ansible/blob/master/firewall_rule.yml

[sbtaylor15]

Did you set the Action as a Post Action on the Application or on the Component?

[piyush94]

@sbtaylor15 First time i set as a Post Action and nothing happened as i guess because the firewall_rule component has no component item. Second time i set as Custom Action and the error came. I also tried creating new Action object for firewall_rule component with same flow but got the same error.

CC: @svisagan83

[sbtaylor15]

@piyush94 That is correct the Post Action won't get trigger when there are no component items. So the Custom Action is the way to go. Add an attribute to the Application Version called debug_ansible and set the value = 1. This will keep the ansible files around after the deployment. The tmp directory for the ansible files will be displayed in the output. Send us a zip of those files.

[piyush94]

@sbtaylor15 It's also giving error if i try to deploy single IIS component to multiple endpoints.

@piyush94 the latest image has this fix for this. It will change the dep.filelist to a valid yaml key as dep_filelist

CC: @svisagan83

[piyush94]

@sbtaylor15 still not working.. when deploying to second endpoint it also starts to copy the playbook files, and still the above error is coming.

@piyush94 - We reworked the logic to fix a clash at the dropzone level. The yaml syntax error and extra files being deployed is fixed.

Here is the new WriteEnv2File proc code:

  set -g RspFile = ${dropzone.path} + "/env.dat";
    set d = now();
    set sname = "s" + ${d.to_int()};

    eval("using stream \$$sname;");
    eval("set envstream = \$$sname;");

    using stream $envstream {
    echo "dropzone: " + ${dropzone.path};
    echo "environment: " + ${environment.name};
    echo "application: " + ${application.name};
    echo "component: " + ${component.name};
    echo "server_name: " + ${server.name};
    echo "targetOS: " + ${server.type};

    set sc = ${server.credential};
    if ($sc != null)
    {
     echo "sshuser: " + ${sc.username};
     echo "sshpass: " + ${sc.password};
    }
    echo "server_hostname: " + ${server.hostname};
    echo "component: " + ${component.name};

    if (${environment.id})
    {    
     foreach(envat: ${environment.attributes}) {  
       echo $envat + ": " + ${environment.attributes[$envat]};
     }
     set creds = ${environment.attributes['creds']};

     if ($creds)
     {       
      foreach(cred: $creds) {
       set credname = ${creds[$cred]};
       set c = getcredential($credname);

       echo $cred + "user: " + ${c.username};
       echo $cred + "pass: " + ${c.password}; 
      }
     }  
    }

    if (${application.id})
    {   
     foreach(appat: ${application.attributes}) {  
       echo $appat + ": " + ${application.attributes[$appat]};
     }

     set creds = ${application.attributes['creds']};
     if ($creds)
     {  
      foreach(cred: $creds) {
       set credname = ${creds[$cred]};
       set c = getcredential($credname);

       echo $cred + "user: " + ${c.username};
       echo $cred + "pass: " + ${c.password}; 
      }
     }
    } 

    if (${server.id})
    { 
     foreach(srvat: ${server.attributes}) {  
      echo $srvat + ": " + ${server.attributes[$srvat]};
     }

     set creds = ${server.attributes['creds']};
     if ($creds)
     {  
      foreach(cred: $creds) {
       set credname = ${creds[$cred]};
       set c = getcredential($credname);

       echo $cred + "user: " + ${c.username};
       echo $cred + "pass: " + ${c.password}; 
      } 
     }
    } 

    if (${component.id})
    {                       
     foreach(compat: ${component.attributes}) {  
      echo $compat + ": " + ${component.attributes[$compat]};       
     }

     set creds = ${component.attributes['creds']};
     if ($creds)
     {
      foreach(cred: $creds) {
       set credname = ${creds[$cred]};
       set c = getcredential($credname);

       echo $cred + "user: " + ${c.username};
       echo $cred + "pass: " + ${c.password}; 
      }
     }
    }

    create(file: "env.dat", stream: $envstream);
 }

Also, the component attributes have changed. The git clone is no longer used. Instead, the iss.yml is read over http.

Here are the component attributes

Here is the new AnsiblePlaybook Action

Please pull the latest docker image

@piyush94 - we added code to catch the array creds["repo"] from the DeployHub Groovy and turn it into an array instead of a literal. Please pull the latest image.

CC: @svisagan83

[sbtaylor15]

@piyush94 we updated the iis.yml to include additional parameters that allows for customization of the website, ie port, application pool, binding ip, ssl etc. The iis.yml will create the website if it doesn't exists.

Please pull these updates onto your fork.
