Customising Installation

This Snipe-IT installation playbook can be executed directly on the target machine or from remote host. To simplify the process we will assume that the installation is done directly from the ubuntu that we are deploying Snipe-IT on. Connect to the target ubuntu machine and run the following:

Install Ansible and git

sudo apt-get -y install python-software-properties software-properties-common
sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:ansible/ansible
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install ansible git

Clone the repository

cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/GR360RY/snipeit-ansible.git

Modify the configuration

cd $HOME/snipeit-ansible

Edit snipeit.yml and overwrite the default values:

---
- hosts: snipeit 
  sudo: true

  vars:

    snipeit_source: /opt/snipe-it

    snipeit_dbname: snipeit
    snipeit_dbuser: snipeit
    snipeit_dbuser_password: secret

    smtp_host: smtp.example.com
    smtp_port: 25

    admin_first_name: Admin
    admin_last_name: Admin
    admin_email: [email protected]
    admin_password: bar

    disable_default_apache_site: True
    run_mysql_on_all_interfaces: False

    # If you want to import users from Active Directory to Snipe-IT, uncomment and modify the below values.
    # To import AD users, run /usr/local/bin/import_ad_users.py

    #ldap_uri: 'ldap://dc01.foo.com'
    #ldap_admin: 'CN=Administrator,DC=foo,DC=com'
    #ldap_passwd: 'your_secret_password'
    #users_ou: 'OU=Users,DC=foo,DC=com'

  roles:
    - snipeit-ansible

Install Snipe-IT

sudo ansible-playbook -i hosts -c local snipeit.yml

Active Directory User Import

One major feature that is missing from Snipe-IT is Active Directory user import/synchronization. It is important to say that this feature is on the roadmap. But what if you are eager to use Snipe-IT in production and do not want to add each and every user manually? This repository will also deploy simple python script that will import AD users directly into the Snipe-IT database. Make sure to modify the last block of the vars section. To import AD users, run /usr/local/bin/import_ad_users.py

Testing Snipe-IT with Vagrant

Install the following Requirements:

Note: Currently working and tested on OS X only but should work just fine on Linux/BSD system and even Windows.

cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/GR360RY/snipeit-ansible.git
cd $HOME/snipeit-ansible
vagrant up
