# Database Setup Role 🚀
This Ansible role provides the necessary tasks, files, templates, and variables to set up databases in your Docker Compose environment. It is essential for configuring your application's database, whether using a local or a central instance of **MariaDB** or **PostgreSQL**.
---
## Overview 🔍
- **Database Variables**
Defined in [./vars/database.yml](./vars/database.yml), these variables include:
- `database_instance`
- `database_host`
- `database_name`
- `database_username`
- `database_port`
- `database_env`
- **Tasks**
Located in [./tasks/main.yml](./tasks/main.yml), the tasks perform the following:
- Include the Docker Compose role.
- Load database variables.
- Create the environment file for the chosen database from a template.
- Optionally create a central database (if enabled).
- **Templates**
- **Environment Files:**
- [PostgreSQL Environment Template](./templates/env/postgres.env.j2)
- [MariaDB Environment Template](./templates/env/mariadb.env.j2)
- **Service Files:**
- [MariaDB Service Template](./templates/services/mariadb.yml.j2)
- [PostgreSQL Service Template](./templates/services/postgres.yml.j2)

## Usage 📋
To use this role, include it in your playbook as follows:
```yaml
- hosts: all
roles:
- your_database_role_name
```
When executed, the role will:
1. Load database configuration variables.
2. Generate the appropriate environment file for the database.
3. Incorporate the Docker Compose routines.
4. Create a central database if `applications[application_id].database.central_storage` is set to `true`.
