setup-machine

Script to setup a new *nix machine

Usage

Just execute the setup-machine script.

Limitations

For now, limited to Operating Systems with apt-get package manager available. Some programs are built by source but then others rely on apt-get; planning to move them as needed.

Digital Ocean droplet setup

I've started using Digital Ocean. I decided to reuse my setup script to setup the droplet instance. However, there is a bit more that I need to do so here are the instructions:

• Create new droplet (debian, mba ssh keys)
• ssh into droplet as root
• run: apt update && apt install --assume-yes git && mkdir code && cd code && git clone https://github.com/spraza/setup-machine.git && ./setup-machine/setup-debian
  • follow instructions
• exit
• locally, run: scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa* spraza@<rootIp>:~/.ssh/
• then ssh into droplet as spraza
• then run: mkdir code && cd code && git clone https://github.com/spraza/setup-machine.git && ~/code/setup-machine/setup-machine-impl
• exit the droplet instance and ssh back

In order to start the webserver for my blog/website, run:

• ~/code/setup-machine/start-website
• in a separate tmux pane, run: cd ~/code/github-repos/blog && eval $(ssh-agent) && git pull origin master && watch -n 15 git pull origin master
