## Local development
|
|
|
|
1. Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in your local MariaDB credentials.
|
|
2. Apply the schema: `mysql -h <host> -u <user> -p <database> < db/schema.sql`
|
|
3. Install dependencies: `npm install`
|
|
4. Run the API: `npm start`
|
|
5. Run the worker (separate terminal): `npm run worker`
|
|
6. Run tests: `npm test` (requires the same MariaDB reachable via your `.env` vars, exported into the shell)
|
|
|
|
## Deployment on o2switch
|
|
|
|
1. Upload the project (excluding `node_modules/`) via SSH/Git.
|
|
2. Create/adjust `.env` on the server with production values (`STORAGE_DIR` pointing to a writable path under your account, MariaDB credentials from cPanel).
|
|
3. `npm install --include=dev` (never with `--ignore-scripts` — Puppeteer needs its postinstall step to download Chromium).
|
|
4. Configure the app in cPanel "Setup Node.js App", pointing its entry point at `src/server.js`. Passenger manages this process (start/stop/restart).
|
|
5. Start the worker independently of Passenger, over SSH: `./node_modules/.bin/pm2 start ecosystem.config.cjs`, then `pm2 save`. Try `pm2 startup` to survive a server reboot; if that's not permitted without root on this account, fall back to a cPanel cron job every 5 minutes that runs `pm2 resurrect` (or checks `pm2 list` and restarts the app if absent) — validate which option this hosting plan actually allows once connected over SSH.
|
|
6. Add a cPanel cron job to run the cleanup script periodically, e.g. every 15 minutes:
|
|
`*/15 * * * * cd /home/gaan6043/convert.ombrora.com-node && /home/gaan6043/nodevenv/convert.ombrora.com-node/24/bin/node src/cleanup.js > /dev/null`
|
|
(adjust the path and node binary location to match your actual account — check with `which node` over SSH).
|
|
7. On every subsequent deployment: pull changes, `npm install`, `npm run build` (frontend), then restart the Passenger app from cPanel and `pm2 restart convert-worker`.
