AutoStack

🌍 Purpose

This project sets up a secure Docker-based deployment environment using:

• An SSH-enabled Debian container
• An AlmaLinux Ansible controller
• Automated NGINX deployment via Ansible
• CI/CD pipeline using GitLab

🔧 Project Structure

• ssh_server/: Debian container with SSH
• ansible_controller/: AlmaLinux with Ansible
• ansible/: Ansible playbook + inventory
• docker-compose.yml: Manages both services
• .gitlab-ci.yml: Automates the full process

🛡️ Security Measures

• Non-root users in both containers
• SSH password authentication with limited user access
• Sudo without password for Ansible execution
• Host key checking disabled (development only)

🚀 How to Use

docker-compose up --build
