Install ansible on a node of your choice (This is for CentOS, Ubuntu branch is available):

yum install ansible sshpass

Edit the hosts.yml file, and ensure your key exists across all nodes (coming soon, this code will add it all for you), then simply run:

ansible-playbook -i hosts.yml site.yml

And voila!

Plans:

• Add variables to specify:
  • Number of replicas
  • Number of shards
  • This will allow you to spin up a dynamic cluster without having to go in and tune specific files
• Automated node creation for RAX cloud server (Maybe AWS)
• Automated SSH keys
• Ubuntu support alongside CentOS (Ubuntu Branch available however under branches)

PRs welcome (and encouraged)!
