After installing postgres, you may want to modify the configuration settings so that local applications can make connections to the database server.
Modify pg_hba.conf
in /etc/postgresql/*/main
(-
is for lines to be removed and +
is for lines to be added, like a diff):
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
-local all all peer
+local all all md5
For connections outside localhost
, modify postgresql.conf
:
-#listen_addresses = 'localhost'
+listen_addresses = '*'
AND modify pg_hba.conf
:
# IPv4 local connections:
-host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
+host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5
sudo -u postgres createdb midas
sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE USER midas WITH PASSWORD 'midas';"
sudo -u postgres psql -c "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE midas to midas;"
sudo -u postgres psql -c "ALTER SCHEMA public OWNER TO midas;" midas
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:chris-lea/node.js
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo apt-get install graphicsmagick
This project uses forked repositories and libaries, which you will
need to npm link
in order for everything to function properly.
sails-postgresql. Forked to provide soft deletes and support binary objects.
git clone https://github.com/Innovation-Toolkit/sails-postgresql.git
cd sails-postgresql
npm install
sudo npm link
git clone https://github.com/Innovation-Toolkit/midas.git
cd midas
sudo npm install -g grunt-cli
sudo npm install -g forever
Important: first link in the forked sails-postgresql
npm link sails-postgresql
Then run the normal npm package installer
npm install
cd config
cp local.ex.js local.js
vi local.js
cd config/settings
cp auth.ex.js auth.js
cp sources.ex.js sources.js
vi auth.js
vi sources.js
Tag configuration:
cd assets/js/backbone/components
vi tag.js
make build
Alternatively, you can also run:
grunt build
The database needs to be populated with the tag defaults for your application's configuration.
Edit the configuration file at test/init/init/config.js
to match your tags in assets/js/backbone/components/tag.js
Then initialize the database with:
make init
If you'd like to include a sample project, also run:
make demo
This will run the application server on port 1337
forever start app.js --prod
You can now access the server at http://localhost:1337
add-apt-repository -y ppa:nginx/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nginx
Configure nginx with the files in the tools folder. Use the SSL config file if you want to enable SSL, but be sure to set your SSL key.
cd tools/nginx
sudo cp sites-enabled.default /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
sudo service nginx restart
With the application server running and nginx running, you should now be able to access the application at http://localhost
Reboot server once finished
Establish admin user account during the wizard and verify that PostgreSQL is running as a service
Open pgAdmin
Create database 'midas', user account 'midas' with password 'midas', and assign user 'midas' full rights to administer DB 'midas'
GraphicsMagick
Select Q8 version along with latest corresponding to 32 bit vs. 64 bit OS
Go to Control Panel -> System -> Advanced System Settings -> Environment Variables Find "Path" Variable in System Variables table and double click to edit it. Make sure it contains all of the following parts (in addition to anything else) separated by a semi-colon.
DRIVE:\program files\graphicsmagick-1.3.18-q8;
(or similar, depending on your graphicsmagick version)
DRIVE:\Program Files\nodejs\;
Save.
Follow instructions as above in Linux Install Guide to retrieve necessary files from GitHub.
Install NPM Modules as directed above.
Retrieve Midas from GitHub as above on an online pc. Install NPM modules as directed. Copy to offline server your local npm_modules directory (in project home) as well as the contents of the directory found in Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/AppData/Roaming/npm to corresponding locations on offline-server.
Navigate to Midas directory via windows cmd.exe prompt
Enter the following commands
npm install sails -g
npm install
npm link sails-postgresql
grunt requirejs
Raise sails with
sails lift
You can now access the server at http://localhost:1337
