Ubuntu下配置威力强大的Foreman

      之前听说过Foreman的存在，但是一直没有去试过，直到今天下午，打算把Puppet所有相关的组件都尝试搭建一次，看看具体功能有多强大。

网上搜，你能搜到一大堆关于如何在CentOS下安装配置Foreman的文章，不少都是ctrl+c,ctrl+v的，格式乱的不堪入目。

官方的文档很简洁，简洁到你都无从配置出正确的foreman出来。OK，本文的目的就是让你在Ubuntu上配置出威力强大的Foreman出来。

系统信息：Ubuntu 12.04

 1.添加源

   新建/etc/apt/sources.list.d/foreman.list:

# Stable packages
deb http://deb.theforeman.org/ stable main

# Testing packages
deb http://deb.theforeman.org/ testing main

# Nightly builds. Beware: HERE BE DRAGONS
deb http://deb.theforeman.org/ nightly main

   下载并添加key:

wget -q http://deb.theforeman.org/foreman.asc -O- | apt-key add -

　亲，别忘了更新哦

apt-get update

2.安装和配置文件

先装一些基本包，这里我用的是sqlite，需要什么sql就下相应的包

apt-get install foreman foreman-sqlite3 foreman-libvirt

修改配置

数据库配置可以默认 database.yml:

roduction:
  adapter: sqlite3
  database: db/production.sqlite3
  pool: 5
  timeout: 5000

development:
  adapter: sqlite3
  database: db/development.sqlite3
  pool: 5
  timeout: 5000

# Warning: The database defined as "test" will be erased and
# re-generated from your development database when you run "rake".
# Do not set this db to the same as development or production.
test:
  adapter: sqlite3
  database: db/test.sqlite3
  pool: 5
  timeout: 5000

设置setting.yaml

#your default puppet server - can be overridden in the host level
#if none specified, plain "puppet" will be used.
:puppet_server: puppet.master.com
:unattended: true
:puppetconfdir: /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
:login: false
:require_ssl: false

复制https://raw.github.com/theforeman/puppet-foreman/master/templates/foreman-report.rb.erb 到 /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/puppet/reports/foreman.rb

修改以下值，IP值为你服务器的IP，这里是本机：

$foreman_url='http://127.0.0.1:3000/'

修改puppetmaster配置

reports = log,foreman

修改puppet配置

report = true

初始化数据库

cd <foreman installation path> && RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate

如果需要从puppet导入数据（without storeconfig）：

rake puppet:import:hosts_and_facts RAILS_ENV=production

如果使用了storeconfigs

rake puppet:migrate:populate_hosts RAILS_ENV=production

OK，启动foreman。

打开你的web输入：127.0.0.1：3000
