liberator_server

Random utilities around creating a better way to read books electronically.

This repository is kind of a mess as I haven't spent much time on it. Don't judge me yet please ;)

Random Dev and deploy notes

• stage files/assets is in the same directory as live files/assets (/usr/local)
  • /usr/local/liberator_stage = staging site
  • /usr/local/liberator_versions = git clones for live site
  • /usr/local/liberator = live site
• the directories above (aka /site_root) are symlinked out all over the place
  • /var/www/books and /var/www/books_stage point to /site_root/output
  • /var/www/liberator_app and /var/www/liberator_app_stage point to /site_root/app
  • nginx confs in /etc/openresty/sites-available/ link to live/stage confs
    • api.conf and files.conf for live
    • stage.x.conf for staging
• so to deploy... (eventually all of this should be handled by ansible)
  • copy stage.x.confs over x.confs
    • make sure to change the servernames and roots (search "root", "server_name", and "/var")
    • git commit and push
  • git clone on live site on server
  • locally run ansible script to copy stage books -> live (preserves live bookmarks): ansible-playbook -i deploy/hosts deploy/deploy.yml
  • change /site_root/app/js/app.js to point to books.liberator.me instead of stagebooks.liberator.me
  • service openresty restart
  • ??? profit ???
