Couchbase Server is a high performance NoSQL document database available in Community and Enterprise editions for several operating system environments.

This project provides documentation and a collection of scripts to help you automate the deployment of Couchbase Server Enterprise Edition using the Ansible orchestration engine on Linux and for Mac OS X with Vagrant managed VirtualBox environments.

This project is comprised of 2 distinct sub-projects structured as follows:

• linux: Ansible project and documentation for Linux

• group_vars: Global group variables for the project

• library: The couchbase-server Ansible module

• roles: Roles for bootstrapping and initializing a Couchbase Server cluster

• centos: Hosts inventory file for CentOS based clusters

• cluster_init.yml: Playbook for initializing a Couchbase Server cluster

• cluster_install.yml: Playbook for installing OS and Couchbase Server

• create_bucket.yml: Ansible playbook for creating a Couchbase Server bucket

• site.yml: Top level Ansible playbook installs and builds the cluster

• ubuntu: Hosts inventory file for Ubuntu based clusters
