Deployment

To deploy on the server, get access to the cs196.cs.illinois.edu Ubuntu server. SSH into <NetID>@cs196.cs.illinois.edu (Note that you need to be connected to IllinoisNet or VPN).

The website is deployed using Apache2 HTTP Serveron the Ubuntu 16.0.4 server. Do the following steps:

1. Run git pull for the latest changes made locally or just edit the files here on the server.
2. Run sudo ./deploy. Check website to make sure changes are live (may take a few seconds)

Website SSL Certificate is managed by LetsEncrypt.

Old Deployment:

If the deployment script does not work, do the following:

1. Run git pull for the latest changes
2. Run ng build --prod in the frontend directory. This will produce a production build of the website in the ./dist directory.
3. Copy all the files within ./dist/website2020 and paste them into /var/www/html. Delete everything in /var/www/html except the .htaccess file
4. Restart the apache server: sudo service apache2 restart

Notes:

If non home urls aren't working (e.g. cs196.cs.illinois.edu/staff or cs196.cs.illinois.edu/resources): solution

Install Ranger for fast terminal navigation: pip install ranger-fm. This may be helpful copying and pasting multiple files
