## Fun Facts
|
|
|
|
### Keyboard Shortcuts
|
|
|
|
On linux, <kbd>ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>shift</kbd>+<kbd>u</kbd>, then, while holding
|
|
<kbd>ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>shift</kbd>, typing <kbd>b</kbd>+<kbd>0</kbd> will type a
|
|
° (degree) symbol. Also you can enter any unicode symbol this way.
|
|
|
|
In vim: `esc + o` will take you to the end of a file and insert a new line.
|
|
|
|
### inputrc
|
|
|
|
Add this to your `~/.inputrc` to allow ctrl + backspace to delete whole words.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
"\C-h": backward-kill-word
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### "find ." shortcuts
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Change file mode for a bunch of directories
|
|
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### tmux
|
|
|
|
- Vertical: ctrl + b + "
|
|
- Horizontal: ctrl + b + %
|
|
- Event Horizontal Distribution: ctrl + b + alt + 1
|
|
- Even Vertical Distribution: ctrl + b + alt + 2
|
|
- Swap pane order: ctrl + b + : -> swap-pane -t 0
|
|
|
|
## SSH Setup
|
|
|
|
Generate a key (password protect it!)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Pick one of the below key types
|
|
# ed25519
|
|
ssh-keygen -C ssh@ducoterra.net -t ed25519
|
|
# rsa 4096
|
|
ssh-keygen -C ssh@ducoterra.net -t rsa -b 4096
|
|
|
|
# Inspect a key
|
|
ssh-keygen -l -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
|
|
|
# Change the password
|
|
ssh-keygen -p -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In your ~/.ssh/config, add the following line to set the default key
|
|
|
|
```conf
|
|
IdentityFile ~/.foo/identity
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then add a host to your local computer
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
Host <hostname>
|
|
Hostname <host.something.com or IP address>
|
|
User <remote user>
|
|
Port <remote port>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And copy the key to a remote computer
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Copy the generated key to the server using password auth. Assumes password auth enabled.
|
|
ssh-copy-id -f -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 ${REMOTE_USER}@${REMOTE_HOST}
|
|
|
|
# Log into the server with your key
|
|
ssh -i ${KEY_NAME} ${REMOTE_HOST}
|
|
# Copy authorized_keys to root
|
|
sudo mkdir -p /root/.ssh
|
|
sudo cp ~/.ssh/authorized_keys /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
|
|
exit
|
|
|
|
# login and disable password auth
|
|
ssh ${REMOTE_HOST}
|
|
mkdir -p /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d
|
|
echo "PasswordAuthentication no" > /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/01-prohibit-password.conf
|
|
systemctl restart sshd
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONAL: Disable sudo password
|
|
echo '%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL' > /etc/sudoers.d/01-nopasswd-wheel
|
|
|
|
exit
|
|
|
|
# Test if you can SSH with a password
|
|
ssh -o PubkeyAuthentication=no ducoterra@${SSH_HOST}.reeselink.com
|
|
|
|
# Test that you can log into the server with ssh config
|
|
ssh $SSH_HOST
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Git GPG Commit Signing
|
|
|
|
1. Use `gpg --list-key 'git@ducoterra.net'` to find your key
|
|
2. Use `git config --global user.signingkey 0A46826A...` to set the signing key
|
|
3. Use `gpg --export -a 'git@ducoterra.net'` to export the key to copy into Gitea/Github/Gitlab
|
|
|
|
Now you can sign commits with `git commit -S`.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can sign every commit by default with `git config --global commit.gpgsign true`.
|
|
|
|
You can verify a commit with `git verify-commit e1e551c`. If the commit is
|
|
signed you'll see an output. If not, nothing will show.

## Project Lifecycle
|
|
|
|
Projects will either be `active` or `retired`.
|
|
|
|
Active projects are being actively developed. They are in-use, stable, and
|
|
production ready. Active projects should meet and track the [active project
|
|
requirements](#active-project-requirements)
|
|
|
|
Retired projects are no longer in use or recommended. They are kept for
|
|
reference. Retired projects must meet the [retirement
|
|
requirements](#retirement-requirements)
|
|
|
|
You'll notice that most of the active projects have scripts or examples that
|
|
use the `active` path as part of their install process. When moved outside the
|
|
`active` directory their scripts and examples break. This is intentional. If
|
|
you want a retired project to work again, bring it back to the active
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
## Project Types
|
|
|
|
All projects will be prefixed with one of the following categories:
|
|
|
|
- `device_`
|
|
- `os_`
|
|
- `cloud_`
|
|
- `systemd_`
|
|
- `podman_`
|
|
- `docker_`
|
|
- `kubernetes_`
|
|
- `software_`
|
|
|
|
Note, some projects will be named with just the prefix. These are projects for
|
|
configuring the underlying technology. The `podman` project, for example, will
|
|
tell you how to configure and install podman so it works correctly.
|
|
|
|
`device_` will prefix projects that relate to specific machines or equipment.
|
|
3D printers, Raspberry Pis, and other IOT devices qualify as specialized
|
|
hardware that needs documentation and configuration. This is not limited to
|
|
computer equipment. The furnace is an important part of the homelab. the Air
|
|
Conditioner is integral to the homelab's function. These projects will also be
|
|
documented.
|
|
|
|
`os_` will contain projects that set up operating systems. These include best
|
|
practices, backups, updates, default software, etc.
|
|
|
|
`cloud_` projects are for specific cloud providers. This will contain
|
|
documentation and errata for things like AWS IAM, Route53, etc. Note these will
|
|
be prefixed with the cloud's name, not the word "cloud". So AWS services will
|
|
be prefixed with `aws_` and azure would be `azure_`. This should make them more
|
|
searchable.
|
|
|
|
`systemd_` projects are designed to be installed with ansible and run via
|
|
systemd on a linux VM or other linux hardware.
|
|
|
|
`podman_` projects are either designed to be run as quadlets or as podman
|
|
containers outright.
|
|
|
|
`docker_` projects are either docker-compose or some form of docker run
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
`kubernetes_` projects are helm, kustomize, kubectl, or some other kubernetes
|
|
compliant deployment.
|
|
|
|
`software_` projects record configuration for common software agnostic to
|
|
operating system or linux flavor.
|
|
|
|
`security_` projects record security best practices and might reference other
|
|
projects, but are usually just best practices and how-tos.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Project Structure
|
|
|
|
All projects will have, at minimum.
|
|
|
|
1. A README named `project-name.md`
|
|
2. A directory called `secrets` which will be gitignored.
|
|
|
|
## Creating a Project
|
|
|
|
Assuming your project name is `my-project` and it runs on `podman`
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new directory called `podman_my-project` under the `active`
|
|
directory
|
|
2. Copy the readme template: `cp project_readme_template.md
|
|
active/podman_my-project/my-project.md`
|
|
3. Populate `my-project.md` as you work through the install process
|
|
4. Create a directory called `secrets` in `podman_my-project`. This will be
|
|
automatically gitignored. Put all secrets here.
|
|
5. Push the changes when you have a working product
|
|
|
|
## Order of Operations
|
|
|
|
1. Configure cloud providers. These usually have no dependencies and typically
|
|
provide critical services to other projects (DNS, email notifications, etc.)
|
|
2. Install infrastructure projects. Usually these only have dependencies on
|
|
cloud services.
|
|
3. Install systemd, kubernetes, docker, podman, and other services.
