Thanks
It's a very simply templating system, same as I use for Blite. Simple = Fast...
Well, I have decided to make a start on freek's idea anyway, another winner ill be decided tomorrow night for another development, I just could not stop myself from getting started.
I have finished the basic set up scripts so far, I decided to follow a Chess theme to keep things orderly in my head.
I called it 'vpchess'
The idea being that the king controls the pieces, I have written the deployment script for the king, and have made a good start on a knight I intend to add a queen who will be HA / filover with the king.
So far with a couple of minor bugs the knights can join a king, the king can then trigger an OpenVPN install on a knight and add users
I will add more functionality and another few roles over the next few days and then start looking at the role reporting side (I am keeping this in mind as I go)
I will then get up a basic page on the king with simple htaccess auth that shows you what your pieces have been up to and then I will release the lot and hopefully someone else can add some web based interactivity to trigger the scrip functions etc.
The upshot being that any script anyone has ever created to install/deploy/control something can be converted in to a role that the king can dish out to its pieces.
Hmm well, I just reread through this thread and although I see a few ideas I dont see any commitment to do the work
Have I miss-interpreted things?
If anyone wants to run with their idea let me know, failing that in an ironic twist I will continue with VPCHESS then release that and perhaps run another competition to develop deployment modules or a web ui or something.... I dunno this did not go to plan haha.
I don't think so. So if no one wants to do anything, consider the VPS I donated a part of the chess project, I'm not deleting it either way
in my case its because I'm not a coder. I would probably be able eventually to create something but it would have bad looks, terrible coding and will be available late fall 2020.
