I’ve recently been making an effort to migrate my server stack to use ansible to manage everything. So I wanted to see if I could compile and deploy my blog using just ansible. (spoiler: I can)
TLDR: run this script to get S300, S1100, S1300, or S1300i models working in Linux: script
This is an old blog post I wrote back in March 2018, but I thought it might be worth posting again.
TLDR: if you just want my image: here you go
I made a pretty unusual setup for generating a start page. All you need is this python script, sites.yml, and index.css. I find this script makes it pretty easy for me to add new sites whenever I want. If you want to look at other examples of start pages feel free to look at r/startpages
I’m going to assume that you have a few things already setup before starting.
The first two things you will need to setup your blog is a domain name and a server (either self-hosted or a vps). I’m not going to go into depth on setting those up in the blog entry as there are many ways to do it, but I chose to buy jkeyne.dev from Namecheap and I got a server from Linode.
Welcome to my blog. I will be posting about my various projects over time here. I have a variety of interests so expect to see anything from electrical design to code to server setup to whatever else I feel like posting.
My first few posts are going to be about how I setup my own blog along with the other services I have running on my server.
