# 🧰 Lenvi - Ansible-Powered Laravel Development Environment
|
# Lenvi - Ansible-Powered Laravel Development Environment
|
||||||
Lenvi is a lightweight, configuration-driven development environment for Laravel, powered by Ansible. It's designed to be a simpler, more transparent alternative to virtual machines like Homestead or Docker setups like Sail, running directly on your local Linux machine (or WSL2).
|
This Ansible playbook automates the setup of a complete Laravel development environment directly on your local machine (Debian/Ubuntu/WSL2). It installs and configures Nginx, multiple PHP versions, and your choice of database based on a simple `Lenvi.yaml` configuration file.
|
||||||
The core idea is simple: define all your projects in a single `Lenvi.yaml` file, and let Ansible handle the rest.
|
## Prerequisites
|
||||||
## Features
|
- **Ansible & Git:** Must be installed on the machine where you are running the playbook.
|
||||||
- **Centralized Configuration**: Manage all your projects from a single, clean `Lenvi.yaml` file.
|
```bash
|
||||||
- **Multiple PHP Versions**: Run different projects with different PHP versions (e.g., 8.0, 8.2, 8.3) side-by-side.
|
sudo apt update && sudo apt install ansible git -y
|
||||||
- **Automatic Nginx Setup**: Generates a robust, secure, and performant Nginx configuration for each site automatically.
|
```
|
||||||
- **Choice of Database**: Easily install MariaDB, MySQL, or PostgreSQL for your environment.
|
- **Sudo Access:** Your user must have `sudo` privileges to run the playbook.
|
||||||
- **Idempotent**: Re-running the playbook only applies necessary changes, making updates fast and safe.
|
- **Debian-based OS:** A distribution like Ubuntu or Debian is required for `apt` and the Ondřej PPA for PHP. This includes WSL distributions.
|
||||||
- **Transparent**: No black boxes. You have full control over all configuration files and installed services.
|
## How to Run
|
||||||
## Requirements
|
|
||||||
- **OS**: An Ubuntu/Debian-based Linux distribution (e.g., Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 LTS). This is required for `apt` and the Ondřej PPA for PHP.
|
|
||||||
- **Ansible**: Ansible must be installed on your machine.
|
|
||||||
- **Permissions**: You will need `sudo` access to run the playbook, as it installs software and modifies system configurations.
|
|
||||||
## Directory Structure
|
|
||||||
Your project should be structured as follows:
|
|
||||||

## Installation & Setup
|
|
||||||
Follow these steps to get your Lenvi environment up and running.
|
|
||||||
### 1. Get the Code
|

|
||||||
Clone this repository or download and extract the files to a directory on your machine, for example `~/lenvi-ansible`.
|
Clone the repository and enter the project directory.
|
||||||
### 2. Install Ansible
|
|
||||||
If you don't have Ansible installed, you can install it via `apt`:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
```bash
|
||||||
sudo apt update
|
git clone https://git.marmattheo.com/marito/Lenvi.git lenvi-ansible && cd lenvi-ansible
|
||||||
sudo apt install software-properties-common
|
|
||||||
sudo add-apt-repository --yes --update ppa:ansible/ansible
|
|
||||||
sudo apt install ansible
|
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
### 3. Configure Your Environment
|
### 2. Configure Lenvi
|
||||||
This is the most important step. Open the `Lenvi.yaml` file and customize it for your needs.
|
This is the most important step. Open the **`Lenvi.yaml`** file and customize it for your needs:
|
||||||
- Set the `db_engine` to your preferred database (`mariadb`, `mysql`, or `postgres`).
|
- Set your global `db_engine`.
|
||||||
- Update the `sites` list to map your local project domains and their absolute paths.
|
- Define all your projects under the `sites` list with their correct `domain`, `project_root`, and `php_version`.
|
||||||
**Example `Lenvi.yaml`:**

|

### 4. Run the Playbook
|
### 3. Execute the Playbook
|
||||||
Navigate to the `lenvi-ansible` directory in your terminal and execute the main playbook. Ansible will ask for your `sudo` password to perform administrative tasks.
|
Run the following command from the `lenvi-ansible` directory. It will prompt you for your `sudo` password to perform the administrative tasks.
|
||||||
```bash
|
```bash
|
||||||
cd /path/to/lenvi-ansible
|
ansible-playbook playbook.yml -i inventory --ask-become-pass
|
||||||
ansible-playbook playbook.yml
|
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
Ansible will now:
|
> **--ask-become-pass:** This flag tells Ansible to prompt for the password needed for privilege escalation (`sudo`).
|
||||||
- Add the PPA for PHP.
|
## 🚀 Final Setup
|
||||||
- Install all required PHP versions.
|
After the playbook completes successfully, there is one final manual step.
|
||||||
- Install Nginx and your chosen database.
|
### Update Your Hosts File
|
||||||
- Generate and place an Nginx config for each site into `/etc/nginx/conf.d/`.
|
For your browser to resolve local domains like `myapp.local`, you must map them to your machine's local IP address (`127.0.0.1`). The location of this file depends on your operating system.
|
||||||
- Reload services.
|
#### On Linux (Desktop)
|
||||||
### 5. Update Your Hosts File
|
Edit the `/etc/hosts` file directly in your terminal:
|
||||||
For your browser to resolve domains like `myapp.local`, you must map them to your local machine. Edit your `/etc/hosts` file:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
```bash
|
||||||
sudo nano /etc/hosts
|
sudo nano /etc/hosts
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
Add an entry for each site you defined in `Lenvi.yaml`, pointing to your local IP address.
|
#### On Windows (for WSL Users)
|
||||||
|
If you are using WSL, you **must** edit the hosts file on Windows itself, not inside the Linux environment.
|
||||||
|
1. Open **Notepad** as an **Administrator**.
|
||||||
|
2. Click `File -> Open` and navigate to this path:
|
||||||
|
`C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts`
|
||||||
|
3. Add the entries to this file.
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
**Example entries to add:**
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
127.0.0.1 myapp.local
|
127.0.0.1 myapp.local
|
||||||
127.0.0.1 legacy-app.local
|
127.0.0.1 legacy-app.local
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
**That's it!** You can now access `http://myapp.local` and `http://legacy-app.local` in your browser.
|
✅ **You're all set!** You can now access your sites, like `http://myapp.local`, in your browser.
