Getting Started

Prerequisites

In order to run the project you need to first install:

• Vagrant
• VirtualBox

Running the project

1. Create a copy of .env.sample and change its content.
2. Run $ vagrant up --provision to start the virtual machine.
3. Run $ vagrant ssh to connect to the machine via SSH.
4. Run $ run to start the development server
5. Go to the application port (8888 by default) http://localhost:8888/.

Deployment

If you selected use_aws_codedeploy during setup, all you need to do is create an application, create a deployment group, and release a new revision.

All deployments require a .env file as well as the .key and .crt files from the SSL certificate inside /app/ansible/nginx/files/ssl in order to succeed.
