Test sites setup for user testing - domains / installs #65

Closed finnlewis closed 2 years ago

finnlewis commented 2 years ago

We'll be testing with at least 5 councils.

  1. Waltham Forest
  2. Croydon
  3. Blackburn
  4. Wirral
  5. Bath and NE Somerset

Each council will have 2-3 users.

Do we set up a separate sites for each council and persist?

stephen-cox commented 2 years ago

@richard-s-rowley @finnlewis @willguv Assuming we will only need 1 test site per council (so if users from the same council are testing the site at the same time they're doing it together) then I propose the following controller sites:

With the ability to create microsites as subdomains of these; e.g site1.bathnes.localgovdrupa.org and events.wirral.localgovdrupa.org.

Are there any other councils that may be testing stuff? If so, it will be easier to get this set up now.

Does the basic naming system sound okay? This provides some limits on the testing, but gives each council their own site to play with.

finnlewis commented 2 years ago

Yes, this sounds perfect @stephen-cox , apart from the (intentional?) typo, missing the 'l' off localgovdrupal.org !

Maybe do one for Cumbria too, just in case?

stephen-cox commented 2 years ago

One thing I've just realised is to use HTTPS I'll need to know the subdomains beforehand so I can add them to the certificate, otherwise you'll get certificate errors; although that might be fine for testing.

@willguv Are you able to get the following DNS records setup?

Jenkins - New automation server

A record: jenkins.localgovdrupal.org => 135.181.27.123 AAAA record: jenkins.localgovdrupal.org => 2a01:4f9:c011:ba5c::1

Web 1 - Current localgovdrupal.org web server

A record: web1.localgovdrupal.org => 95.216.212.249 AAAA record: web1.localgovdrupal.org => 2a01:4f9:c010:4b19::1

Web 2 - New testing server

A record: web2.localgovdrupal.org => 135.181.28.137 AAAA record: web2.localgovdrupal.org => 2a01:4f9:c011:ba5d::1 CNAME record: bathnes.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: .bathnes.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: blackburn.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: .blackburn.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: croydon.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: .croydon.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: cumbria.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: .cumbria.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: walthamforest.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: .walthamforest.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: wirral.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org CNAME record: .wirral.localgovdrupal.org => web2.localgovdrupal.org

If the wildcard CNAME records are not supported by the DNS provider then the CNAME record will need replacing with the same A and AAAA records are the web2 server.

Thanks Stephen

willguv commented 2 years ago

@stephen-cox should be done, please check. Thanks

finnlewis commented 2 years ago

Update: DNS in place, @stephen-cox is setting up the server for this and a Jenkins server!

stephen-cox commented 2 years ago

We have the following sites:

Each have SSL certs for the subdomains: site1, site2, site3, site4, and site5. Others can be added as required.

There's a Jenkins server which allows people to run stuff on all the different sites hosted by Agile Collective (https://jenkins.localgovdrupal.org/). Authentication is done via GitHub. Any member of the localgovdrupal organisation can run jobs. @stephen-cox @finnlewis and @ekes are admins, All jobs are managed in https://github.com/localgovdrupal/jenkins_config/

The Jenkins stuff needs improving, documenting and security reviewed, but should do for the time being.

finnlewis commented 2 years ago

Great work @stephen-cox !

I've logged into the Croydon site as the 'LocalGov Controller' and it all seems to be working nicely,

Exciting!

finnlewis commented 2 years ago

I think this one is done, feel free to re-open if needed.

willguv commented 2 years ago

Nice work!!
