+- [Architecture of this repo, how the scripts work](doc/architecture.md)
+- [List of TCP and UDP ports used by services](doc/ports)
-Basically:
- - The new administrator generates a GPG key and publishes it on Gitea
- - All existing administrators pull their key and sign it
- - An existing administrator reencrypt the keystore with this new key and push it
- - The new administrator clone the repo and check that they can decrypt the secrets
- - Finally, the new administrator must choose a password to operate over SSH with `./passwd prod rick` where `rick` is the target username

-## How to create files for a new zone
-
-*The documentation is written for the production cluster, the same apply for other clusters.*
-
-Basically:
- - Create your `site` file in `cluster/prod/site/` folder
- - Create your `node` files in `cluster/prod/node/` folder
- - Add your wireguard configuration to `cluster/prod/cluster.nix`
- - You will have to edit your NAT config manually
- - To get your node's wg public key, you must run `./deploy_prod prod <node>`, see the next section for more information
- - Add your nodes to `cluster/prod/ssh_config`, it will be used by the various SSH scripts.
- - If you use `ssh` directly, use `ssh -F ./cluster/prod/ssh_config`
- - Add `User root` for the first time as your user will not be declared yet on the system
-
-## How to deploy a Nix configuration on a fresh node
-
-We suppose that the node name is `datura`.
-Start by doing the deployment one node at a time, you will have plenty of time
-in your operator's life to break everything through automation.
-
-Run:
- - `./deploy_wg prod datura` - to generate wireguard's keys
- - `./deploy_nixos prod datura` - to deploy the nix configuration files
- - need to be redeployed on all nodes as the new wireguard conf is needed everywhere
- - `./deploy_password prod datura` - to deploy user's passwords
- - need to be redeployed on all nodes to setup the password on all nodes
- - `./deploy_pki prod datura` - to deploy Nomad's and Consul's PKI
-
-## How to operate a node
-
-Edit your `~/.ssh/config` file:
-
-```
-Host dahlia
- HostName dahlia.machine.deuxfleurs.fr
- LocalForward 14646 127.0.0.1:4646
- LocalForward 8501 127.0.0.1:8501
- LocalForward 1389 bottin.service.prod.consul:389
- LocalForward 5432 psql-proxy.service.prod.consul:5432
-```
-
-Then run the TLS proxy and leave it running:
-
-```
-./tlsproxy prod
-```
-
-SSH to a production machine (e.g. dahlia) and leave it running:
-
-```
-ssh dahlia
-```
-
-
-Finally you should see be able to access the production Nomad and Consul by browsing:
-
- - Consul: http://localhost:8500
- - Nomad: http://localhost:4646
