Production Quality Meteor Deployment to Anywhere

meteor-up

This version of Meteor Up is still in development. Please check arunoda/meteor-up for the stable version.

Production Quality Meteor Deployment to Anywhere

First setup Meteor Up

git clone https://github.com/kadirahq/meteor-up
cd meteor-up
npm install
npm run prepublish
npm link

Then setup your project

mkdir .deploy
cd .deploy
mup init <your project>

make changes to mup.js. and add a settings.json file. Then,

mup setup
mup deploy

Your settings.json file should be in the same directory, and it will automatically be used.

mup.js format

Note that we are using a mup.js file instead of the old mup.json file. You can write regular javascript code in this file to change things like reading the contents of an ssh key file. An example format for this file is as follows.

module.exports = {
  servers: {
    one: {
      host: '1.2.3.4',
      username: 'root'
      // pem:
      // password:
      // or leave blank for authenticate from ssh-agent
    }
  },

  meteor: {
    name: 'app',
    path: '../app',
    servers: {
      one: {}, two: {}, three: {} //list of servers to deploy, from the 'servers' list
    },
    buildOptions: {
      serverOnly: true,
      debug: true,
      mobileSettings: {
        yourMobileSetting: "setting value"
      }
    },
    env: {
      ROOT_URL: 'app.com',
      MONGO_URL: 'mongodb://localhost/meteor'
    },
    logs: { //optional
      driver: 'syslog',
      opts: {
        url:'udp://syslogserverurl.com:1234'
      }
    }
    dockerImage: 'madushan1000/meteord-test', //optional
    deployCheckWaitTime: 60 //default 10
  },

  mongo: { //optional
    oplog: true,
    port: 27017,
    servers: {
      one: {},
    },
  },
};
