node-js-sample

A barebones Node.js app using Express 4.

Running Locally

Make sure you have Node.js.

git clone [e-mail]:heroku/node-js-sample.git # or clone your own fork
cd node-js-sample
npm install
npm start

Dockerizing App

Make sure you have docker installed. I am running docker with sudo privileges.

sudo docker build -t node_app .
sudo docker run -p 5000:5000 -d node_app

Your app should now be running on localhost:5000.

Travis CI

Install travis client and configure secrets.

sudo gem install travis
cd /path/to/repository
travis encrypt DEPLOY_HOST=X.X.X.X --add
travis encrypt DEPLOY_PATH=/home/user/app --add
travis encrypt DEPLOY_USER=user --add

Now in same directory implement the following command to generate SSH public-private keypair to perform remote deployment.

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C '[e-mail]' -N '' -f ./deploy_rsa
travis encrypt-file deploy_rsa --add
mv deploy_rsa.enc .travis/

Now add that public key in remote server's authorized_keys file for SSH approval. (For EC2 instance, better you bake AMI with packer and predefined SSH key )

cat ./deploy_rsa.pub | ssh -i ~/.key/test.pem DEPLOY_USER@DEPLOY_HOST "cat - >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
rm -f deploy_rsa deploy_rsa.pub
git add deploy_rsa.enc .travis.yml

Now, Travis will automatically build app on git push.
