Drupal VM's configuration works with multiple operating systems and with multiple webservers. You can switch between Apache and Nginx (depending on which server you prefer) with ease. Apache is the webserver used out of the box.
You have complete control over all aspects of Apache VirtualHosts using the apache_vhosts
configuration. A few simple examples are shown in default.config.yml
, but this configuration can be much more complex.
See the examples included in the geerlingguy.apache
Ansible role's README for more info, as well as many other variables you can override to configure Apache exactly how you like it.
Enable SSL Support with Apache
To enable SSL support for you virtual hosts you first need a certificate file. You can generate a self-signed certificate with a command like
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout example.key -out example.crt
If you're using an actual production certificate you should of course NOT track it in git but transfer it to the VM before running vagrant provision
Add the following to your config.yml
:
apache_vhosts_ssl:
- servername: "{{ drupal_domain }}"
documentroot: "{{ drupal_core_path }}"
certificate_file: "/vagrant/example.crt"
certificate_key_file: "/vagrant/example.key"
extra_parameters: "{{ apache_vhost_php_fpm_parameters }}"
Using Ubuntu's snakeoil certificate
If you are using Ubuntu as your base OS and you want to get started quickly with a local development environment you can use the snakeoil certificate that is already generated.
apache_vhosts_ssl:
- servername: "{{ drupal_domain }}"
documentroot: "{{ drupal_core_path }}"
certificate_file: "/etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem"
certificate_key_file: "/etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key"
extra_parameters: "{{ apache_vhost_php_fpm_parameters }}"
