Run sudo raspi-config, and perform the following tasks (In Ubuntu you need to install it first with sudo apt install raspi-config): Then we need to set some basic configurations with raspi-config. Network: version: 2 renderer: networkd ethernets: eth0: dhcp4: false addresses: - 192.168.0.101/24 nameservers: addresses: routes: - to: default via: 192.168.0.1
#INSTALL GOODSYNC ON RASPBERRY PI UPDATE#
Log into the system (the default user and password are pi and raspberry for Raspberry Pi OS, and in Ubuntu is ubuntu for both user and password) and run an initial system update with these commands: Once the process is done, you have a clean installation of an operating system on your micro SD card, insert the card into your Raspberry Pi, plug in a keyboard and a screen, and turn it on. Have in mind that RStudio Server is compatible only with arm64 operating systems, so if you want to be able to install it, you will have to choose a 64-bit OS, the playbooks work with Raspberry Pi OS, and Ubuntu as well.ĭownload “Raspberry Pi Imager” from the official site and install it in your system, execute “Raspberry Pi Imager”, choose a suitable OS, choose the “SD Card” and press “Write”.

✏️ Note that this has only been tested with the software versions specified in the config_vars.yml file, it is very likely that it will still work out of the box with newer software versions, but in some cases, it might require some modifications to the playbooks that I will made as soon as I notice the problem.Įven if most of the process can be automated with Ansible, we still need at least one working Raspberry Pi to configure, so, we need to start by flashing an Operating System (OS) onto an SD card (I recommend at least 32GB class 10 HC1). Although, if you want to have a basic understanding of how this tool works, there is a nice Ansible 101 series on Jeff Geerling’s YouTube channel and if you are the kind of people that prefer reading rather than seeing things, here is a nice Ansible Tutorial for Beginners. I took one for the team and wrote some Ansible playbooks to automate most of the installation process but leaving some room for you to configure the installation to your liking via a config file, so you don’t need to modify the playbooks (which will require you to know how they work). In layman’s terms, it lets you automate tasks in your infrastructure (One, or many Raspberry Pi SBCs at once in our case) by defining a set of steps to execute in YAML files called “playbooks”.
It runs on many Unix-like systems, and can configure both Unix-like systems as well as Microsoft Windows.
I’m going to guide you through the process assuming you have no prior experience with this tool and just some basic Linux terminal skills.Īnsible is an open-source software provisioning, configuration management, and application-deployment tool enabling infrastructure as code.
To automate the installation and configuration process I decided to use Ansible, those in DevOps must be familiar with the power of Ansible but even if you’ve never heard of it, don’t worry, you don’t need to know Ansible in order to take advantage of its automation capabilities, I’m not an Ansible expert myself and I’ve been capable of accomplishing this project with just basic knowledge of the tool, so if I can do it, so can you. I have a related post about manually installing Shiny and RStudio server on a Raspberry Pi but even with the latest advancements in software support for the ARM architecture, this process is still considerably time-consuming and requires a lot of copy/pasting and watching the terminal waiting for one task to be completed to be able to start with the next one, so, I decided to come up with a better solution, and that is to automate the process so it can be left unattended and come back later when it’s done.
