These headers are required for apps like wordpress to figure the site url. It is not clear why they do not just use relative urls. http://cmanios.wordpress.com/2014/04/12/nginx-https-reverse-proxy-to-wordpress-with-apache-http-and-different-port/
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/rmappdir.sh env_keep=HOME girish ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/girish/yellowtent/box/src/rmappdir.sh Defaults!/home/girish/yellowtent/box/src/reloadnginx.sh env_keep=HOME girish ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/girish/yellowtent/box/src/reloadnginx.sh
(replace the username and path to rmappdir.sh to match your environment)
You might have to clear the sudo cache using sudo -k.
** Verify using sudo src/rmappdir.sh --check. This should print 'OK'
** Verify using sudo src/reloadnginx.sh --check. This should print 'OK'
-
Set your hostname to 'mybox.cloudron.us' ** On Mac, settings the hostname through command line resets the name periodically. Using the network control panel, always appends a .local suffix. Workaround: sudo scutil --set HostName mybox.cloudron.us
-
export FQDN='mybox.cloudron.us' (add this to your .bashrc) ** Add the above domain to your /etc/hosts ** All apps will be installed as hypened-subdomains of the above FQDN ** You should add hyphened-subdomains of your apps into /etc/hosts
Running
-
./run.sh - this starts up nginx to serve up the webadmin ** https://mybox.cloudron.us should now be accessible ** Do not use https://localhost. It will appear to work work but will break oauth redirection
-
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:
- Start a vanilla Ubuntu DO
- scripts/createBaseUbuntuImage.sh <DROPLET_IP>
- Snapshot the image in DO
- Change heroku config to that image id above
- curl "https://api.digitalocean.com/v1/images/?client_id=f18dbe3b7090fa0a3f6878709dd555aa&api_key=ee47d2d5b2f2a4281508e3a962c488fc" | python -m json.tool
- heroku config:set DIGITAL_OCEAN_IMAGE=5561068
