# Mac Development Ansible Playbook

[![CI][badge-gh-actions]][link-gh-actions]
This playbook installs and configures laptop for development work in SRE Release Engineering.

This playbook installs and configures most of the software I use on my Mac for web and software development. Some things in macOS are slightly difficult to automate, so I still have a few manual installation steps, but at least it's all documented here.
## First Time Steps

## Installation
These steps should only be executed once as subsequently you will have Ansible installed via homebrew.

1. Ensure Apple's command line tools are installed (`xcode-select --install` to launch the installer).
2. [Install Ansible](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/index.html):
1. Ensure Apple's command line tools are installed (`xcode-select --install` to launch the installer).
2. [Install Ansible](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/index.html):

1. Run the following command to add Python 3 to your $PATH: `export PATH="$HOME/Library/Python/3.9/bin:/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"`
2. Upgrade Pip: `sudo pip3 install --upgrade pip`
3. Install Ansible: `pip3 install ansible`
1. Run the following command to add Python 3 to your $PATH temporarily: `export PATH="$HOME/Library/Python/3.9/bin:$PATH"`
2. Upgrade Pip: `sudo pip3 install --upgrade pip`
3. Install Ansible: `pip3 install ansible`

3. Clone or download this repository to your local drive.
4. Run `ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml` inside this directory to install required Ansible roles.
5. Run `ansible-playbook main.yml --ask-become-pass` inside this directory. Enter your macOS account password when prompted for the 'BECOME' password.
### Running the Playbooks

> Note: If some Homebrew commands fail, you might need to agree to Xcode's license or fix some other Brew issue. Run `brew doctor` to see if this is the case.
#### Setup

1. Clone or download this repository to your local drive.
1. Run `ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml` inside this directory to install required Ansible roles.

### Use with a remote Mac
#### SRE Release Engineering

You can use this playbook to manage other Macs as well; the playbook doesn't even need to be run from a Mac at all! If you want to manage a remote Mac, either another Mac on your network, or a hosted Mac like the ones from [MacStadium](https://www.macstadium.com), you just need to make sure you can connect to it with SSH:
This playbook will setup the laptop for SRE Release Engineering.

1. (On the Mac you want to connect to:) Go to System Preferences > Sharing.
2. Enable 'Remote Login'.
To run this: `ansible-playbook playbooks/srere-laptop-setup.yml --ask-become-pass`

> You can also enable remote login on the command line:
>
> sudo systemsetup -setremotelogin on
It performs the following tasks:

Then edit the `inventory` file in this repository and change the line that starts with `127.0.0.1` to:
- Installs homebrew and sets up the Jfrog repository
- Install homebrew packages, apps and taps as defined in `homebrew_installed_packages`, `homebrew_cask_apps`, `homebrew_taps` in [default.srere-laptop-setup.yml](vars_files/default.srere-laptop-setup.yml)
- Sets up the zsh shell by setting up common functions, paths variable and other environment variables.
- Sets up Git with some configurations like:
- GPG Signing
- Proper username and email (derived from your Mac username)
- Default init branch set to main
- `push.autoSetupRemote` set so you don't have to do `git push --set-upstream` when pushing a new branch
- Helm repository setup to point to the internal Helm Chart repository.

```
[ip address or hostname of mac] ansible_user=[mac ssh username]
```
For a more accurate description please see [playbooks/srere-laptop-setup.yml](playbooks/srere-laptop-setup.yml) and the roles and tasks in it.

If you need to supply an SSH password (if you don't use SSH keys), make sure to pass the `--ask-pass` parameter to the `ansible-playbook` command.
> Note: If some Homebrew commands fail, you might need to agree to Xcode's license or fix some other Brew issue. Run `brew doctor` to see if this is the case.
### Running a specific set of tagged tasks

You can filter which part of the provisioning process to run by specifying a set of tags using `ansible-playbook`'s `--tags` flag. The tags available are `dotfiles`, `homebrew`, `mas`, `extra-packages` and `osx`.
You can filter which part of the provisioning process to run by specifying a set of tags using `ansible-playbook`'s `--tags` flag. The tags that are available can be listed by running `ansible-playbook playbooks/srere-laptop-setup.yml --list-tags`.

ansible-playbook main.yml -K --tags "dotfiles,homebrew"
ansible-playbook playbooks/srere-laptop-setup.yml --ask-become-pass --tags git-config,helm-repo-setup

## Overriding Defaults

Not everyone's development environment and preferred software configuration is the same.

You can override any of the defaults configured in `default.config.yml` by creating a `config.yml` file and setting the overrides in that file. For example, you can customize the installed packages and apps with something like:

```yaml
homebrew_installed_packages:
- cowsay
- git
- go

mas_installed_apps:
- { id: 443987910, name: "1Password" }
- { id: 498486288, name: "Quick Resizer" }
- { id: 557168941, name: "Tweetbot" }
- { id: 497799835, name: "Xcode" }

composer_packages:
- name: hirak/prestissimo
- name: drush/drush
version: '^8.1'

gem_packages:
- name: bundler
state: latest

npm_packages:
- name: webpack

pip_packages:
- name: mkdocs

configure_dock: true
dockitems_remove:
- Launchpad
- TV
dockitems_persist:
- name: "Sublime Text"
path: "/Applications/Sublime Text.app/"
pos: 5
```
Any variable can be overridden in `config.yml`; see the supporting roles' documentation for a complete list of available variables.

My [dotfiles](https://github.com/geerlingguy/dotfiles) are also installed into the current user's home directory, including the `.osx` dotfile for configuring many aspects of macOS for better performance and ease of use. You can disable dotfiles management by setting `configure_dotfiles: no` in your configuration.

Finally, there are a few other preferences and settings added on for various apps and services.

## Full / From-scratch setup guide

Since I've used this playbook to set up something like 20 different Macs, I decided to write up a full 100% from-scratch install for my own reference (everyone's particular install will be slightly different).

You can see my full from-scratch setup document here: [full-mac-setup.md](full-mac-setup.md).

## Testing the Playbook

Many people have asked me if I often wipe my entire workstation and start from scratch just to test changes to the playbook. Nope! This project is [continuously tested on GitHub Actions' macOS infrastructure](https://github.com/geerlingguy/mac-dev-playbook/actions?query=workflow%3ACI).

You can also run macOS itself inside a VM, for at least some of the required testing (App Store apps and some proprietary software might not install properly). I currently recommend:

- [UTM](https://mac.getutm.app)
- [Tart](https://github.com/cirruslabs/tart)
At this time this is not possible. The configuration is somewhat neccesary to do development work. When preferential configuration is added, overriding those options will be provided.
