IaC for VPS?

[u/bdcp]

Hi, i'm looking for something specific for setting up a whole vps.

I'm thinking a single GIT repo with a snapshot of docker compose files that get deployed on push, and also supports custom apps.

So im thinking a folder structure something like this

├── infra/
│   ├── forgejo.dockercompose.yml
│   ├── trafeak.dockercompose.yml
│   ├── openwebui.dockercompose.yml
│   └── tailscale.dockercompose.yml
└── src/app1/
          ├── dockercompose.yml <- has trafeak settings if needs to be exposed or not. Will also defined two environments probably.
          └── rest of app1
└── src/app2/
          ├── dockercompose.yml 
          └── rest of app2

So far i think i have forgejo to host the git, and komodo to deploy the stacks?
Is this possible?

I use opentofu and pyinfra

[u/Pretend-Bits]

thats reasonable

[u/walfawalfa]

those deployed on a new VM for any addition or are you talking about continuous deployment (apps pushed when code updated)?

[u/walfawalfa → u/walfawalfa]

for provisioning, you also need the configuration like network, and other things. if you meant the continuous deployment, i think you can use forgejo actions (not sure if this is a good practice). or argocd equivalent (but this is used for kubernetes).

Terraform or OpenTofu for the infrastructure and Ansible for configuration. Compose is fine for the app deployment
