• PostgreSQL on host
  • Listening on socket in /var/run/postgresql/
  • Database (zammad_database_name, default: zammad) and user (zammad_database_user, default: zammad) created

    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      POSTGRES_DB: '{{ zammad_database_name }}'

Deploy

Add target host(s) to group zammad in inventory/hosts and copy inventory/host_vars/example to inventory/host_vars/{hostname} for each host. Adjust values as needed and run:

ansible-playbook -D -t zammad site.yml

Upgrade

ansible-playbook -D -t zammad -e 'zammad_upgrade=yes' site.yml
