The Box
Development setup
-
sudo adduser yellowtent ** This dummy user is required for supervisor 'box' configs
-
rmappdir.sh should be callable without a password ** Add a file called /etc/sudoers.d/yellowtent with the following contents: Defaults!/home/girish/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/rmappdir.sh env_keep=HOME girish ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/girish/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/rmappdir.sh Defaults!/home/girish/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/reloadnginx.sh env_keep=HOME girish ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/girish/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/reloadnginx.sh Defaults!/Users/girishra/research/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/backup.sh env_keep=HOME girishra ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /Users/girishra/research/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/backup.sh Defaults!/Users/girishra/research/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/reboot.sh env_keep=HOME girishra ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /Users/girishra/research/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/reboot.sh Defaults!/Users/girishra/research/yellowtent/box/src/scripts/reloadcollectd.sh env_keep=HOME girishra ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /Users/girishra/research/box/src/scripts/reloadcollectd.sh
(replace the username and path to rmappdir.sh to match your environment)
You might have to clear the sudo cache using sudo -k.
** scripts/checkInstall.sh
** Add admin-localhost as 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts ** All apps will be installed as hypened-subdomains of localhost. You should add hyphened-subdomains of your apps into /etc/hosts
Running
-
./run.sh - this starts up nginx to serve up the webadmin ** Navigate to https://admin-localhost
-
DEBUG=box:* ./app.js - this the main box code ** NODE_ENV is set to production by default
Deployment setup
Creating a box image involves the following steps:
- scripts/createDigitalOceanImage.sh <GIT_REF>
- This should spit out a image id at the end of the script
