Deploys

We use pm2 to deploy npms-www, install it by running $ npm install -g pm2. You may find the pm2 configuration file in ecosystem.json5. The website itself is served through nginx which is great to serve static content.

Setting up

Before doing the first deploy, you need to setup the server.

PM2

  • Create the www user on server
  • Add www user to the list of sudoers
  • Install pm2 in the server
  • Setup the deploy environment by running $ pm2 deploy ecosystem.json5 production setup in your local machine
  • Create ~/npms-www/parameters.json in the server with the custom configuration (API URL pointing to https://api.npms.io/v2, Google Analytics id, etc)
  • Do your first deploy by running $ pm2 deploy ecosystem.json5 production in your local machine

Nginx

  • Install nginx in the server by running $ sudo aptitude install nginx
  • Apply the https://github.com/h5bp/server-configs-nginx server config suggestions wisely
    • Apply best practices in nginx.conf
    • Replace the mime.types with the h5bp one
    • Copy h5bp into /etc/nginx
  • Setup a new site (or just use the default) in /etc/nginx/sites-available with the config exemplified below
  • Enable this site and finally restart nginx by running $ sudo service nginx restart
server {
  listen *:80;
  server_name npms.io;
  root /home/www/npms-www/web;

  include h5bp/basic.conf;

  # url rewrite
  location / {
     try_files $uri $uri/ @missing;
  }

  location @missing {
    rewrite ^ /index.html last;
  }
}

Deploying

Deployment is easy, just run $ pm2 deploy ecosystem.json5 production in your local machine
