Debian installation

1. Install Node.js & yarn (from root)

   curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash -
   apt-get install -y nodejs
   curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg |  apt-key add -
   echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
   apt-get update && apt-get install yarn
   

   source

2. Install Gancio

   yarn add gancio --prod
   

3. Setup with postgreSQL (optional as you can choose sqlite)

   apt-get install postgresql
   # Create the database
   su postgres -c psql
   postgres=# create database gancio;
   postgres=# create user gancio with encrypted password 'gancio';
   postgres=# grant all privileges on database gancio to gancio;
   

4. Create a user to run gancio from

   adduser gancio
   su gancio
   

5. Launch interactive setup

   gancio setup --config config.json
   

6. Start

   gancio start --config config.json
   

7. Point your web browser to http://localhost:13120 or where you selected during setup.

8. Setup nginx as a proxy

9. To deploy gancio in production you should use something like pm2:

sudo yarn global add pm2
pm2 start gancio -- --config config.json

# Run this command to run your application as a service and automatically restart after a reboot:
pm2 startup # read the output!
sudo pm2 startup -u gancio

1. Upgrade

sudo yarn global add gancio sudo service pm2 restart
