saltstack-node-koa

This is still a work in progres, as are my sysadmin skills. If you've got any ideas or suggestions on how to improve things, make an issue or ping me.

To Begin

1. Install Vagrant and Virtual Box.
2. vagrant up
3. vagrant ssh
4. sudo salt-call --local state.highstate

This will:

• Create the virtual machine, based on ubuntu 12.04.
• Symlink the saltstack configuration to /etc/salt and /srv/salt.
• Compile and Install node-v0.11.11.
• Clone a koa based app.
• Run the app via pm2.

TODO

• Start the app with pm2 with harmony flag turned on. It's easy enough to do manually, but has proved more difficult than expected through saltstack.
• Setup nginx. When I get pm2 to do it's thing, then I run into the issue of node not having access to port 80. So... nginx ftw.

Caveats

• This is only a proof of concept.
• It probably isn't ready for production
• You'll probably want to secure your minion too.
• And maybe build an actual app. Maybe.
