Publishing

To publish a new version of Roggle, bump the version in package.json, publish to NPM (@nathanfriend/roggle), and run a new pipeline in the website-3.0-docker project.

Note to self

In order to run the node websocket server on the same server as Apache, add this to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:

# pipes websocket traffic for roggle to node
ProxyPass "ws://nathanfriend.io:18734/roggle/server" ws://localhost:18734/
ProxyPassReverse "ws://nathanfriend.io:18734/roggle/server" ws://localhost:18734/

Update

The live version of Roggle is no longer hosted behind Apache; leaving the info above for historical purposes.
