Description

This cookbook configures the machine to mirror various sources of static content: documentation, websites, RFCs, and other such relatively simple things.

Requirements

Platform

  • Ubuntu 13.04 (that's all we support at /dev/fort for now, so that's all I've tested.)

Attributes

Cookbook attributes are named under the content_mirror namespace.

  • node['content_mirror']['user'] - user to host mirrors as, defaults to fort
  • node['content_mirror']['data_dir'] - directory to store the mirrors in, defaults to '/data'
  • node['content_mirror']['apache']['hostname_template'] - Template for hostnames to listen on for Apache virtualhosts for each mirror, defaults to '%{name}.fort'
  • node['content_mirror']['apache']['listen_port'] - Port to listen on for content Apache virtualhost, defaults to '80'
  • node['content_mirror']['commands'] - Hash of commands to use when mirroring, and templates for their execution. Defaults are rsync and wget
  • node['content_mirror']['content'] - Hash of sources to mirror. Keyed on mirror name (used in default hostname), each with a hash containing method (one of the aforementioned commands), remote, and optionally args. Other values may be added for new command templates.

Recipes

The main entrypoint for this cookbook is the default recipe.

Usage

Include content-mirror and it will start replicating the content specified by the attributes in node.content_mirror.content using the methods specified. This will take a very long time (probably the best part of a day), and require tens of gigabytes of storage. You have been warned.

You can keep an eye on the mirroring progress by running tail -f /var/log/upstart/content-mirror.log.
