Lightroom
A Facebook Hackathon project: provide API access to an array of lights, and allow user-submitted javascript to manipulate their state.
Setup
This setup assumes you are using Ubuntu (and uses upstart).
You will need the following support packages installed:
apt-get install nginx python-virtualenv
Python setup
Check this project out into /srv/lightroom/lightroom:
mkdir -p /srv/lightroom
git clone https://github.com/vhata/lightroom.git /srv/lightroom/lightroom
Create the virtualenv for lightroom:
virtualenv /srv/lightroom
/srv/lightroom/bin/pip install -r /srv/lightroom/lightroom/requirements.txt
Docker setup
Install docker as per http://docs.docker.io/en/latest/installation/ubuntulinux/
Once this is done, you will need to create a docker image for the node.js sandbox. These instructions were taken from http://kuhnza.com/2013/03/27/docker-makes-creating-secure-sandboxes-easier-than-ever/
Start a docker base image with:
sudo docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash
Inside the image, run the following commands to install nodejs. The first line is a hack to make sure that the universe repository is in your source.list.
Do not exit the shell after running these commands.
sed -i -e 's/main/main universe/' /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install python-software-properties python g++ make
add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
apt-get update
apt-get install nodejs
Once this is complete, open another shell and run sudo docker ps. This
will give you the ID of the running container. You need to save this container
with the command sudo docker commit [container ID] node.
You can check that it was created with sudo docker images.
Nginx setup
Copy conf/lightroom-nginx.conf from this repository to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/lightroom and restart nginx.
In addition, you will need to copy conf/lightroom-upstart.conf to /etc/init/lightroom.conf and run start lightroom.
