Role Name
|
||||
=========
|
||||
Ansible Role: paperless-ng
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
A brief description of the role goes here.
|
||||
Installs and configures paperless-ng EDMS on Debian/Ubuntu systems.
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Any pre-requisites that may not be covered by Ansible itself or the role should be mentioned here. For instance, if the role uses the EC2 module, it may be a good idea to mention in this section that the boto package is required.
|
||||
No special system requirements. Ansible 2.7 or newer is required.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that this role requires root access, so either run it in a playbook with a global `become: yes`, or invoke the role in your playbook like:
|
||||
|
||||
- hosts: all
|
||||
roles:
|
||||
- role: ansible
|
||||
become: yes
|
||||
|
||||
Role Variables
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
A description of the settable variables for this role should go here, including any variables that are in defaults/main.yml, vars/main.yml, and any variables that can/should be set via parameters to the role. Any variables that are read from other roles and/or the global scope (ie. hostvars, group vars, etc.) should be mentioned here as well.
|
||||
Most configuration variables from paperless-ng itself are available and accept their respective arguments.
|
||||
Every `PAPERLESS_*` configuration varaible is lowercased and instead prefixed with `paperlessng_*` in `defaults/main.yml`.

Install Paperless using ansible
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
This role currently only supports Debian 10 Buster and Ubuntu 20.04 Focal or later as target hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install ansible 2.7+ on the management node.
|
||||
This may be the target host paperless-ng is being installed on or any remote host which can access the target host.
|
||||
For further details, check the ansible `inventory <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/intro_inventory.html>`_ documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
On Debian and Ubuntu, the official repositories should provide a suitable version:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
apt install ansible
|
||||
ansible --version
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can install the most recent ansible release using PyPI:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
python3 -m pip install ansible
|
||||
ansible --version
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure your taget hosts are accessible:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: sh
|
||||
|
||||
ansible -m ping YourAnsibleTargetHostGoesHere
|
||||
|
||||
2. Clone the repository of paperless-ng:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: sh
|
||||
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/jonaswinkler/paperless-ng
|
||||
|
||||
Checkout the latest release tag:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: sh
|
||||
|
||||
cd paperless-ng
|
||||
git checkout ng-0.9.14
|
||||
|
||||
3. Create an ansible ``playbook.yml`` in the paperless-ng root directory:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: yaml
|
||||
|
||||
- hosts: YourAnsibleTargetHostGoesHere
|
||||
become: yes
|
||||
vars_files:
|
||||
- ansible/vars.yml
|
||||
roles:
|
||||
- ansible
|
||||
|
||||
Optional: If you also want to use PostgreSQL on the target system, install and add (for example) the `geerlingguy.postgresql <https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-postgresql>`_ role:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: sh
|
||||
|
||||
ansible-galaxy install geerlingguy.postgresql
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: yaml
|
||||
|
||||
- hosts: YourAnsibleTargetHostGoesHere
|
||||
become: yes
|
||||
vars_files:
|
||||
- ansible/vars.yml
|
||||
roles:
|
||||
- geerlingguy.postgresql
|
||||
- ansible
|
||||
|
||||
Optional: If you also want to use a reverse proxy on the target system, install and add (for example) the `geerlingguy.nginx <https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-nginx>`_ role:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: sh
|
||||
|
||||
ansible-galaxy install geerlingguy.nginx
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: yaml
|
||||
|
||||
- hosts: YourAnsibleTargetHostGoesHere
|
||||
become: yes
|
||||
vars_files:
|
||||
- ansible/vars.yml
|
||||
roles:
|
||||
- geerlingguy.postgresql
|
||||
- ansible
|
||||
- geerlingguy.nginx
|
||||
|
||||
4. Create ``ansible/vars.yml`` to configure your ansible deployment:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: yaml
|
||||
|
||||
paperless_secret_key: PleaseGenerateAStrongKeyForThis
|
||||
|
||||
paperlessng_superuser_name: YourUserName
|
||||
paperlessng_superuser_email: name@domain.tld
|
||||
paperlessng_superuser_password: YourDesiredPasswordUsedForFirstLogin
|
||||
|
||||
paperlessng_ocr_languages:
|
||||
- eng
|
||||
- deu
|
||||
|
||||
For all of the available options, please check ``ansible/README.md`` and :ref:`configuration`.
|
||||
|
||||
Optional configurations for the above-mentioned PostgreSQL and nginx roles would also go here.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Run the ansible playbook from the management node:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: sh
|
||||
|
||||
ansible-playbook playbook.yml
|
||||
|
||||
When this step completes successfully, paperless-ng will be available on the target host at ``http://127.0.0.1:8000`` (or the address you configured).
