Then in another terminal, run
npm start
Before you commit, please run webpack --optimize-minimize to generate a minified bundle.js (Webpack isn't running on the server, so we can't automate this as of now).
Anyway, to deploy to this the server, you need to add it as a remote first.
git remote add production st@mudhras.org:st.gitThen git push production master will deploy the latest code.
We use Nginx to as webserver. So, there's a file on the server /var/nginx/sites-available/st that has the Nginx configuration. It serves the public folder directly. It passes the /refresh request to our Node.js app that refreshes the data list.
If you change anything in the Nginx config, you need to reload the config sudo nginx -s reload.
This Node.js app is being monitored by Upstart which monitors it and keeps it alive. So, there's an /etc/init/st.conf which starts this app. All the Environment Variables are also defined there. We have the these variables that need to be defined:
ST_URL: The URL where this site is hosted (currently,mudhras.org)ST_IMAGES_PATH: The images location (currently,/home/st/Dropbox/Mudhras)CLOUDINARY_NAME,CLOUDINARY_API_KEY,CLOUDINARY_SECRET: cloudinary details
If you change anything in this config, you need to do sudo restart st or sudo start st.
Images should be there within the ST_IMAGES_PATH environment variable that we have set above. Images should be within images (lowercase) folder in the ST_IMAGES_PATH folder. Then any folder directly within images is a Gallery. Any image within those galleries will be shown as pictures. Thumbnails get generated automatically. But for the gallery thumbnail, there needs to be a gallery_cover.jpg within the respective folders.
Upload your new icon to http://realfavicongenerator.net/ and download the zip folder (with the default options). Replace all the files (except index.html) from the public folder with the ones in the ZIP folder. Then do a git push to deploy
