 Ansible role EteBase - EteSync 2.0 Server Backend
===================================================
Ansible role to Setup and Confugure Etebase - The Backend from EteSync 2.0 -> https://github.com/etesync/server

```
WORK IN PROGRESS!!!
```

 Details
---------
This Ansible role installs and configures etebase, the backend of etesync. A piece of software to securely sync your contacts, calendars, tasks and notes!
In this Ansible role, a separate user is created for etebase. The latest release of etebase is downloaded to the home of this user. A configuration is created. The specified Python dependencies are installed in a venv. And optionally etebase can be started automatically via a systemd service and uvicorn.
What this Ansible role does not create are users in Etebase. And the configuration for the web server is not created either.

 Additional Information
------------------------
You find more information about the webserver config at [github.com/etesync/server/wiki/Production-setup-using-Nginx](https://github.com/etesync/server/wiki/Production-setup-using-Nginx). Please remember the value you used for the ``etebase__socket`` variable, if you used this role to start the [unicorn](https://www.uvicorn.org/) ASGI server via systemd. For this you have to set ``etebase__systemd_setup`` to ``true``.

You have to create a admin User by yourself. To do this, log in manually as priviledged user, change to the ``etebase__user_home``. Enter the downloaded etebase code direcotory and run the 'python3 ./manage.py createsuperuser' command:
```bash
cd /var/lib/etebase/
ls etebase_*
cd etebase_v0.10.0  # example versiom
/var/lib/etebase/venv/bin/python3 ./manage.py createsuperuser
```
