# Apache2 Role
Ansible Role to deploy one or multiple Apache2 sites on a linux server.
**Tested:**
* Debian 11
## Functionality
* **Package installation**
* Ansible dependencies (_minimal_)
* Apache2
* **Configuration**
* Support for multiple sites/servers
* Two **config-modes**:
* serve (_default_)
* redirect
* Support for specific configurations using the 'config' and 'config_additions' parameters
* **Default config**:
* Disabled: <TLS1.2, unsecure ciphers, autoindex, servertokens/-signature, ServerSideIncludes, CGI
* Security headers: HSTS, X-Frame, Referrer-Policy, Content-Type nosniff, X-Domain-Policy, XXS-Protection
* Limits to prevent DDoS
* Using a Self-Signed certificate
* Modules: +ssl, +http2, headers, rewrite; -autoindex
* HTTP2 enabled with fallback to HTTP1.1
* IPv6 support disabled (*at least one ipv6 address MUST EXIST*)
* **SSL modes** (_for more info see: [CERT ROLE](https://github.com/ansibleguy/infra_certs)_)
* **selfsigned** => Generate self-signed ones
* **ca** => Generate a minimal Certificate Authority and certificate signed by it
* **letsencrypt** => Uses the LetsEncrypt certbot
* **existing** => Copy certificate files or use existing ones
* **Default opt-ins**:
* restricting methods to POST/GET/HEAD
* status-page listener on localhost
* Logging to syslog
* http2
* **Default opt-outs**:
* Include the config file 'sites-available/site_{{ site_name }}_app.conf' for advanced usage
Options to provide module config will be added in the future!<br>
Also some basic mods will get a pre-config added. (_prefork, evasive_)
## Info
* **Note:** Most of this functionality can be opted in or out using the main defaults file and variables!
* **Note:** this role currently only supports debian-based systems
* **Note:** This role expects that the site's unencrypted 'server' will only redirect to its encrypted connection.
* **Note:** If you want all domain-names to get 'caught' by a site/server you need to add a star/wildcard '*' as alias!<br>
BUT: You still have to provide a main domain!
* **Warning:** Not every setting/variable you provide will be checked for validity. Bad config might break the role!
* **Info:** To disable default settings and headers => just set their value to: ''
## Requirements
* Community collection and certificate role: ```ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml```
## Usage
### Config
Define the apache dictionary as needed!
```yaml
apache:
headers:
mySuperCustom: 'headerContent'
modules:
present: ['evasive', 'ssl', 'headers', 'rewrite']
guys_statics:
mode: 'serve'
domain: 'static.guy.net'
serve:
path: '/var/www/site_guys_statics'
ssl:
mode: 'ca' # create minimal ca with signed server-certificate
config: # add settings as key-value pairs
KeepAliveTimeout: 10
config_additions: # add a list of custom lines of config
- 'location = / { return 301 /kitty.jpg; }'
git_stuff:
mode: 'redirect'
domain: 'ansibleguy.net'
aliases: ['www.ansibleguy.net']
redirect:
target: 'https://github.com/ansibleguy'
ssl:
mode: 'letsencrypt'
letsencrypt:
email: 'apache@template.ansibleguy.net'
security:
restrict_methods: false
```
### Execution
Run the playbook:
```bash
ansible-playbook -K -D -i inventory/hosts.yml playbook.yml
```
There are also some useful **tags** available:
* base => only configure basics; sites will not be touched
* sites
* config => configuration (base and instances)
* certs
