Deployment

Until we move over to our other production servers, here are the general deployment steps.

cross compile your binary for GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64
tip: if you are cross compiling on OSX, the Go toolchain doesn't work well with CGO. The mattn/sqlite package requires CGO so it's probably easiest to compile the binary under a Linux environment e.g. with Vagrant
scp your compiled binary to the live server [email protected]
ssh into the server ssh [email protected]
move your binary to /opt/healthtip
if you made changes to the db schema, scp and move your coral.db to the same folder
restart the app with sudo systemctl restart healthtip
if you made changes to any of the web components, they reside in /var/www/html so you'll have to scp and move your js and any other static files there
probably best to leave the .env file on the server alone unless you are intentionally making changes to it
test it to make sure everything is working correctly https://tips.mycoralhealth.com
