Debian
|
||||||
|
======
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The current Ubuntu guide is not completely compatible with Debian and there are some specificities and especially the NodeJS installation, and how to get latest Redis.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Requirements
|
||||||
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||||
|
NodeBB requires these software to be installed:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Node.js at least 0.10 and greater
|
||||||
|
* Redis, version 2.6 or greater
|
||||||
|
* cURL installed, just do ``sudo apt-get install curl`` in order to install it
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Node.js installation
|
||||||
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Debian 7 and Debian 6 and older doesn't have `nodejs` packages included by default, but there are some solutions to install Node.js on your Debian distribution.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Wheezy Backport :
|
||||||
|
------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This solution is **ONLY for Debian 7**, simply run the following **as root** :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ echo "deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian wheezy-backports main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
|
||||||
|
$ apt-get update
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To install Node.js + NPM, run this :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ apt-get install nodejs-legacy
|
||||||
|
$ curl --insecure https://www.npmjs.org/install.sh | bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The following install a Node.js version who is greater than 0.8 (at 29 March 2014 : 0.10.21)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Compiling from the source :
|
||||||
|
------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This solution is for Debian 6 (Squeeze) and greater, in order to install NodeJS, run this **as root** :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ sudo apt-get install python g++ make checkinstall
|
||||||
|
$ src=$(mktemp -d) && cd $src
|
||||||
|
$ wget -N http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz
|
||||||
|
$ tar xzvf node-latest.tar.gz && cd node-v*
|
||||||
|
$ ./configure
|
||||||
|
$ fakeroot checkinstall -y --install=no --pkgversion $(echo $(pwd) | sed -n -re's/.+node-v(.+)$/\1/p') make -j$(($(nproc)+1)) install
|
||||||
|
$ sudo dpkg -i node_*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Get latest Software via DotDeb
|
||||||
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Dotdeb is a repository containing packages to turn your Debian boxes into powerful, stable and up-to-date LAMP servers.
|
||||||

Debian 7 (Wheezy) :
|
||||||
|
------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For the complete DotDeb repositories :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ sudo echo 'deb http://packages.dotdeb.org wheezy all' >> /etc/apt/sources.list

||||||
|
------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For the complete DotDeb repositories :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ sudo echo 'deb http://packages.dotdeb.org squeeze all' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
|
||||||

$ sudo apt-get update
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Installing NodeBB
|
||||||
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now, we have NodeJS installed and Redis ready to be installed, run this command for install the base software stack :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ apt-get install redis-server imagemagick git
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Next clone this repository :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cd /path/to/nodebb/install/location
|
||||||
|
$ git clone git://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git nodebb
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now we are going to install all dependencies for NodeBB via NPM :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cd /path/to/nodebb/install/location/nodebb (or if you are on your install location directory run : cd nodebb)
|
||||||
|
$ npm install
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Install NodeBB by running the app with `--setup` flag :
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ ./nodebb setup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. `URL of this installation` is either your public ip address or your domain name pointing to that ip address.
|
||||||
|
**Example:** ``http://0.0.0.0`` or ``http://example.org``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. ``Port number of your NodeBB`` is the port needed to access your site:
|
||||||
|
**Note:** If you do not proxy your port with something like nginx then port 80 is recommended for production.
|
||||||
|
3. If you used the above steps to setup your redis-server then use the default redis settings.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
And after all.. let's run the NodeBB forum
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ ./nodebb start
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:** If you NodeBB or your server crash, your NodeBB instance will not reboot (snap), this is why you should take a look at the other way to start your NodeBB instance with helper programs such as ``supervisor`` and ``forever``, just [take a look here](https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/wiki/How-to-run-NodeBB) it's simple as a click!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Extras, tips and Advice
|
||||||
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You should secure your NodeBB installation, `take a look here <https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB#securing-nodebb>`_.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You should use Nginx in order to reverse proxy your NodeBB installation on the port 80, [take a look here](https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/wiki/Configuring-nginx-as-a-proxy-to-NodeBB)

|
|
||||||
First, we install our base software stack:
|

* `CentOS <https://blog.tommyparnell.com/installing-nodebb-on-centos-6-5/>`_ (external)
|
||||||
**If your package manager only installed a version of Node.js that is less than 0.8 (e.g. Ubuntu 12.10, 13.04):**
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
|
|
||||||
$ apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Next, clone this repository:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ cd /path/to/nodebb/install/location
|
|
||||||
$ git clone git://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git nodebb
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Obtain all of the dependencies required by NodeBB:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ cd nodebb
|
|
||||||
$ npm install
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Initiate the setup script by running the app with the `--setup` flag:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ ./nodebb setup
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The default settings are for a local server running on the default port, with a redis store on the same machine/port.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Lastly, we run the forum.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ ./nodebb start
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
NodeBB can also be started with helper programs, such as `supervisor` and `forever`. [Take a look at the options here](https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/wiki/How-to-run-NodeBB).

## Requirements
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
NodeBB requires the following software to be installed:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* A version of Node.js at least 0.8 or greater.
|
|
||||||
* Redis, version 2.6 or greater (steps to install from Joyent's package repository given below).
|
|
||||||
* nginx, version 1.3.13 or greater (**only if** intending to use nginx to proxy requests to a NodeBB server).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Server Access
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Sign in your Joyent account: [Joyent.com](http://joyent.com)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Select: `Create Instance`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Create the newest `smartos nodejs` image.
|
|
||||||
**Note:** The following steps have been tested with image: `smartos nodejs 13.1.0`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Wait for your instance to show `Running` then click on its name.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Find your `Login` and admin password. If the `Credentials` section is missing, refresh the webpage.
|
|
||||||
*Example:* `ssh root@0.0.0.0` `A#Ca{c1@3`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. SSH into your server as the admin not root: `ssh admin@0.0.0.0`
|
|
||||||
**Note:** For Windows users that do not have ssh installed, here is an option: [Cygwin.com](http://cygwin.com)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Installation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Install NodeBB's software dependencies:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ sudo pkgin update
|
|
||||||
$ sudo pkgin install scmgit nodejs build-essential ImageMagick redis
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If any of these failed:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ pkgin search *failed-name*
|
|
||||||
$ sudo pkgin install *available-name*
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **If needed** setup a redis-server with default settings as a service (automatically starts and restarts):
|
|
||||||
**Note:** These steps quickly setup a redis server but does not fine-tuned it for production.
|
|
||||||
**Note:** If you ran `redis-server` manually then exit out of it now.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ svcadm enable redis
|
|
||||||
$ svcs
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*-* If `svcs` shows "/pkgsrc/redis:default" in maintenance mode then:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ scvadm clear redis
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*-* To shut down your redis-server and keep it from restarting:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ scvadm disable redis
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*-* To start up your redis-server and have it always running:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ scvadm enable redis
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Move to where you want to create the nodebb folder:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ cd /parent/directory/of/nodebb/
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Clone NodeBB's repository:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ git clone git://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git nodebb
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Install NodeBB's npm dependencies:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ cd nodebb/
|
|
||||||
$ npm install
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Run NodeBB's setup script:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ node app --setup
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. `URL of this installation` is either your public ip address from your ssh `Login` or your domain name pointing to that ip address.
|
|
||||||
*Example:* `http://0.0.0.0` or `http://example.org`
|
|
||||||
1. `Port number of your NodeBB` is the port needed to access your site:
|
|
||||||
**Note:** If you do not proxy your port with something like nginx then port 80 is recommended for production.
|
|
||||||
1. If you used the above steps to setup your redis-server then use the default redis settings.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Start NodeBB process:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*Run NodeBB manually:*
|
|
||||||
**Note:** This should not be used for production.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ node app
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Visit your app!
|
|
||||||
*Example:* With a port of 4567: `http://0.0.0.0:4567` or `http://example.org:4567`
|
|
||||||
**Note:** With port 80 the `:80` does not need to be entered.
|

## Installing NodeBB
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Now, we have NodeJS installed and Redis ready to be installed, run this command for install the base software stack :
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ apt-get install redis-server imagemagick git
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Next clone this repository :
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ cd /path/to/nodebb/install/location
|
|
||||||
$ git clone git://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git nodebb
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Now we are going to install all dependencies for NodeBB via NPM :
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ cd /path/to/nodebb/install/location/nodebb (or if you are on your install location directory run : cd nodebb)
|
|
||||||
$ npm install
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Install NodeBB by running the app with `--setup` flag :
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ ./nodebb setup
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. `URL of this installation` is either your public ip address or your domain name pointing to that ip address.
|
|
||||||
*Example:* `http://0.0.0.0` or `http://example.org`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. `Port number of your NodeBB` is the port needed to access your site:
|
|
||||||
**Note:** If you do not proxy your port with something like nginx then port 80 is recommended for production.
|
|
||||||
3. If you used the above steps to setup your redis-server then use the default redis settings.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
And after all.. let's run the NodeBB forum
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. code:: bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$ ./nodebb start
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Note:** If you NodeBB or your server crash, your NodeBB instance will not reboot (snap), this is why you should take a look at the other way to start your NodeBB instance with helper programs such as `supervisor` and `forever`, just [take a look here](https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/wiki/How-to-run-NodeBB) it's simple as a click !
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Extras, tips and Advice
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You should secure your NodeBB installation, [take a look here](https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB#securing-nodebb).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You should use Nginx in order to reverse proxy your NodeBB installation on the port 80, [take a look here](https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/wiki/Configuring-nginx-as-a-proxy-to-NodeBB)

Windows 8
|
|
||||||
-----------------------
|
|
||||||
### Required Software
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
First, install the following programs:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* https://windows.github.com/
|
|
||||||
* http://nodejs.org/
|
|
||||||
* http://sourceforge.net/projects/redis/files/redis-2.6.10/
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You may have to restart your computer.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Running NodeBB
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Start Redis Server (C:\Program Files (x86)\Redis\StartRedisServer.cmd)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Open Git Shell, and type the following commands. Clone NodeBB repo:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
git clone https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Enter directory:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
cd NodeBB
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Install dependencies:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
npm install
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Run interactive installation:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
node app.js
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You may leave all of the options as default.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
And you're done! After the installation, run
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
node app.js
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can visit your forum at http://127.0.0.1:4567/
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Developing on Windows
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It's a bit of a pain to shutdown and restart NodeBB everytime you make changes. First install supervisor:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
npm install -g supervisor
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Open up bash:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
And run NodeBB on "watch" mode:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
./nodebb watch
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It will launch NodeBB in development mode, and watch files that change and automatically restart your forum.

|
========
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Requirements
|
||||||
|
----------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
NodeBB requires the following software to be installed:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* A version of Node.js at least 0.8 or greater.
|
||||||
|
* Redis, version 2.6 or greater (steps to install from Joyent's package repository given below).
|
||||||
|
* nginx, version 1.3.13 or greater (**only if** intending to use nginx to proxy requests to a NodeBB server).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Server Access
|
||||||
|
----------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Sign in your Joyent account: `Joyent.com <http://joyent.com>`_
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Select: ``Create Instance``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Create the newest ``smartos nodejs`` image.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:** The following steps have been tested with image: ``smartos nodejs 13.1.0``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Wait for your instance to show `Running` then click on its name.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. Find your ``Login`` and admin password. If the ``Credentials`` section is missing, refresh the webpage.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Example:** ``ssh root@0.0.0.0`` ``A#Ca{c1@3``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. SSH into your server as the admin not root: ``ssh admin@0.0.0.0``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:** For Windows users that do not have ssh installed, here is an option: `Cygwin.com <http://cygwin.com>`_
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Installation
|
||||||
|
----------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Install NodeBB's software dependencies:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ sudo pkgin update
|
||||||
|
$ sudo pkgin install scmgit nodejs build-essential ImageMagick redis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If any of these failed:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ pkgin search *failed-name*
|
||||||
|
$ sudo pkgin install *available-name*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **If needed** setup a redis-server with default settings as a service (automatically starts and restarts):
|
||||||
|
**Note:** These steps quickly setup a redis server but does not fine-tuned it for production.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:** If you ran `redis-server` manually then exit out of it now.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ svcadm enable redis
|
||||||
|
$ svcs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*-* If `svcs` shows "/pkgsrc/redis:default" in maintenance mode then:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ scvadm clear redis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*-* To shut down your redis-server and keep it from restarting:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ scvadm disable redis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*-* To start up your redis-server and have it always running:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ scvadm enable redis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Move to where you want to create the nodebb folder:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cd /parent/directory/of/nodebb/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Clone NodeBB's repository:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ git clone git://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git nodebb
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. Install NodeBB's npm dependencies:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cd nodebb/
|
||||||
|
$ npm install
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. Run NodeBB's setup script:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ node app --setup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A. `URL of this installation` is either your public ip address from your ssh `Login` or your domain name pointing to that ip address.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Example:** `http://0.0.0.0` or `http://example.org`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
B. `Port number of your NodeBB` is the port needed to access your site:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:** If you do not proxy your port with something like nginx then port 80 is recommended for production.
|
||||||
|
C. If you used the above steps to setup your redis-server then use the default redis settings.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
7. Start NodeBB process:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Run NodeBB manually:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:** This should not be used for production.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ node app
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
8. Visit your app!
|
||||||
|
**Example:** With a port of 4567: ``http://0.0.0.0:4567`` or ``http://example.org:4567``
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:** With port 80 the `:80` does not need to be entered.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

Ubuntu
|
||||||
|
--------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
First, we install our base software stack:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ apt-get install git nodejs redis-server imagemagick
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you want to use MongoDB, LevelDB, or another database instead of Redis please look at the :doc:`Configuring Databases <../configuring/databases>` section.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**If your package manager only installed a version of Node.js that is less than 0.8 (e.g. Ubuntu 12.10, 13.04):**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
|
||||||
|
$ apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Next, clone this repository:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cd /path/to/nodebb/install/location
|
||||||
|
$ git clone git://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git nodebb
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Obtain all of the dependencies required by NodeBB:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cd nodebb
|
||||||
|
$ npm install
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Initiate the setup script by running the app with the ``setup`` flag:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ ./nodebb setup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The default settings are for a local server running on the default port, with a redis store on the same machine/port.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Lastly, we run the forum.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ ./nodebb start
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
NodeBB can also be started with helper programs, such as ``supervisor`` and ``forever``. `Take a look at the options here <https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/wiki/How-to-run-NodeBB>`_.
