# 1. Set the OPENEDX_RELEASE variable:
#export OPENEDX_RELEASE=open-release/ginkgo.1
# Note: there are several small but really important bug fixes since the ginkgo.1 named release. i'm setting the releast to master (ie the most recent stable release) for the time being.
export OPENEDX_RELEASE=open-release/ginkgo.2

# 2. Bootstrap the Ansible installation:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/edx/configuration/$OPENEDX_RELEASE/util/install/ansible-bootstrap.sh -O - | sudo bash

# 3. (Optional) If this is a new installation, randomize the passwords:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/edx/configuration/$OPENEDX_RELEASE/util/install/generate-passwords.sh -O - | bash


# look for a server-vars.yml file in the home directory
if [[ -f server-vars.yml ]]; then
  echo "found server-vars.yml. Copying to /edx/app/edx_ansible/server-vars.yml";
  sudo cp server-vars.yml /edx/app/edx_ansible/server-vars.yml
fi

# 4. Install Open edX:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/edx/configuration/$OPENEDX_RELEASE/util/install/sandbox.sh -O - | bash > edx.install.out
