1. Run the following commands to install RVM:
echo 'insecure' > ~/.curlrc
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 409B6B1796C275462A1703113804BB82D39DC0E3
\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
2. To install a specific version of Ruby, run:
rvm install ruby-X.X.X
rvm --default use ruby-X.X.X
3. Install Bundler
gem install bundler --no-rdoc --no-ri
4. Install NodeJS
sudo apt-get update &&
sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates &&
curl --fail -ssL -o setup-nodejs https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_0.12 &&
sudo bash setup-nodejs &&
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
5. If everything OK, we can install passenger and nginx now.
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 561F9B9CAC40B2F7
sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates
sudo sh -c 'echo deb https://oss-binaries.phusionpassenger.com/apt/passenger wheezy main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/passenger.list'
sudo apt-get update
Install Passenger + Nginx sudo apt-get install -y nginx-extras passenger 6. Enable the passenger's nginx module. Edit /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file. Open file with your favourite text editor. (I choose vim)
sudo vim /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
Find and uncomment this line: # include /etc/nginx/passenger.conf; It should look like this:
include /etc/nginx/passenger.conf;
If you don't see a commented version of include > /etc/nginx/passenger.conf; inside nginx.conf, then you need to insert it yourself inside the http block.
Restart nginx
sudo service nginx restart
7. Check installation
sudo /usr/bin/passenger-config validate-install
* Checking whether this Phusion Passenger install is in PATH... ✓
* Checking whether there are no other Phusion Passenger
installations... ✓
Update & upgrade
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
1. Login to your server, create a user for the app
ssh root@yourserver.com
You should give the user account the same name as your app. I will use demouser
sudo adduser demouser
After that give the sudo priviliges to demouser
$ visudo
Add this line below the root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
demouser ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
While logged into your server, login under the application's user account as follows:
sudo -u demouser -H bash -l 2
Pull code from git
cd
git clone git@github.com:username/myapp.git cd myapp
If you haven't git, install git follows:
sudo apt-get install -y git
3. Install App Dependencies
bundle install --deployment --without development test
4. Configure database.yml and secrets.yml
vim config/database.yml
Ensure that the production section looks like this:
production:
adapter: sqlite3
database: db/production.sqlite3
Generate secret key:
RAILS_ENV=production rake secret
This command will output a secret key. Copy that value to your clipboard. Open the secrets.yml vim config/secrets.yml
Edit this line:
production: secret_key_base: `value that you copied`
Run the following command to compile assets for the Rails asset pipeline, and to run database migrations:
RAILS_ENV=production rake assets:precompileRAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate
Type exit to go back to root account We need to create an Nginx configuration file.
sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/myapp.conf
Don't forget replace myapp with your app's name.
server {
listen 80;
server_name yourserver.com;
# Tell Nginx and Passenger where your app's 'public' directory is
root /home/demouser/myapp/public;
# Turn on Passenger
passenger_enabled on;
passenger_ruby /path-to-ruby;
}
You can use
pwdfor find app's path. And you can usewhich rubyfor ruby's path.
Now we can create link to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled path.
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/myapp.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/myapp.conf
When you are done, restart Nginx:
sudo service nginx restart
