Drupal-nfs Cookbook

Setup nfs shares

Requirements

Platform:

Ubuntu

Cookbooks:

nfs

Drupal-lamp usage

Try this cookbook with drupal-lamp https://github.com/newmediadenver/drupal-lamp

To get it working with drupal-lamp:

• Open Berksfile in your drupal-lamp directory and place the following line in there

cookbook "drupal-nfs", git: "https://github.com/arknoll/drupal-nfs", branch: "master"

• Open chef/roles/drupal_lamp.rb in your drupal-lamp directory and add "recipe[drupal-nfs]", to the env_run_lists run list array

• run either 'vagrant up' or 'vagrant provision'

Usage

Mac Example:

Expose a share of /srv/www/example/current

This example will open up an nfs share:

• for the folder located at /srv/www/example/current
• it will be writeable
• when written to from the mount it will act as if you are user www-data and group www-data

"nfs_exports": {
    "/srv/www/example/current": {
      "clients": {
        "*": {
          "writeable": true,
          "sync": false,
          "options": [
            "no_subtree_check",
            "all_squash",
            "async"
          ],
          "anon_user_name": "www-data",
          "anon_group_name": "www-data"
        }
      }
    }
  }

Mount the share on your mac

sudo mount -o resvport [server ip]:/srv/www/example/current test

Linux Example:

Expose a share of /assets

This example will open up an nfs share of the /assets folder on the virtualized server with the following details:

• Only clients with the IP address of 192.168.50.1 can mount this share (the default IP of a drupal-lamp host machine as seen by the virtualized server).
• Those who mount this will have write access.
• The NFS sync option will be used to ensure greater data cache coherence.
• Those who mount this will come through as www-data:www-data (uid 33 & gid 33 in a default drupal-lamp virtualized Ubuntu server).

  "nfs_exports": {
    "/assets": {
      "clients": {
        "192.168.50.1": {
          "writeable": true,
          "sync": true,
          "options": [
            "all_squash",
            "anonuid=33",
            "anongid=33"
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  }

Mount the share on your linux machine

Note: Assumes you've exposed the share /assets on your virtualized server and you've created an empty assets folder in your drupal-lamp directory.

From the host machine:

sudo mount 192.168.50.5:/assets /home/[your_user_name]/drupal-lamp/assets

Attributes

"nfs_exports": {
  "[share directory]": { # directory to share
    "clients": { # who can access
      "[ip address or *]": {
        "writeable": true, # true or false
        "sync": , # true or false
        "options": [], # array of nfs exports options. See nfs cookbook for options
        "user_map": "www-data", # this sets the anon user by name
        "group_map": "www-data" # this sets the anon group by name
      }
    }
  }
}

Testing

The cookbook provides the following Rake tasks for testing:

rake foodcritic                   # Lint Chef cookbooks
rake integration                  # Alias for kitchen:all
rake kitchen:all                  # Run all test instances
rake kitchen:default-centos-64    # Run default-centos-64 test instance
rake kitchen:default-ubuntu-1204  # Run default-ubuntu-1204 test instance
rake rubocop                      # Run RuboCop style and lint checks
rake spec                         # Run ChefSpec examples
rake test                         # Run all tests
