[DONE] Task manager

Running and Deploying

Prerequisites

Install Redis.
Go(only the development machine needs Go).
The Foreman tool(only the development machine needs it).
A clone of the server code in the GOPATH(git clone git@github.com:moln/server $GOPATH/src/github.com/moln/server).

Running a Development Server

Run the dev script ./dev.

This script will build the server, create any directories needed, and start the servers with the Foreman tool(including the Redis server).

Deploying to a Production Server

Configure port 80 to reroute to 3000.
Create directories /mnt/www/moln, /data, /var/log/moln, and /var/log/redis.
Create files /etc/init/redis-server.conf and /etc/init/moln.conf.
Make sure the directories and files created above can be written to by the user.
Make sure the redis-server and moln upstart process can be started and stopped by the user.
Run the deploy script ./deploy <user@host...>.

This script will do the following for each given server:

build the binary for the servers arch(on the development machine)
copy the binary and the config directory to appropriate place
copy the upstart scripts to the appropriate place
restart redis-server, and moln upstart processes

Notes:

The servers being deployed to are assumed to be Unix based.
When running in production mode on Windows, Redis connects to a UNIX Socket; so you may encounter errors.

TLS

So the deployment process above is for standard HTTP, if you want to secure your servers traffic, add the following to your production configuration(config/production.json).

{
  "TLS": {
    "Key": "/path/to/server.key",
    "Cert": "/path/to/server.crt"
  }
}

Then instead of redirecting port 80's traffic to port 3000, redirect port 443.
