NodePomf

NodeJS rewrite of nokonoko/Pomf.

Install

For the purposes of this guide, we won't cover setting up Nginx, Node, or NPM. So we'll just assume you already have them all running well.

Setting Up

Assuming you already have Node and NPM working, setting up npomf is easy:

$ git clone https://github.com/maxpowa/npomf.git  
$ cd npomf  
$ npm install  

That's it. You can now run the app with npm start

Docker

docker pull maxpowa/npomf

Start the container as you would normally.

Configuring npomf

In the config folder, you will find all of the files that effect the operation of the application. Most config options should be self-explanatory or will have extensive documentation on them.

Docker

For configuring in docker, you can specify environment variables to overwrite the existing config by adding NPOMF_<CONFIG_VALUE> to your env. You can also create a volume over the config file with

-v <path/to/your/core.js>:/usr/src/app/config/core.js

Nginx Config

Usually, you want to run a NodeJS app behind a proxy like nginx. Configuring nginx with npomf is easy.

# Point the 'server' option here to your npomf instance
upstream npomf {
  server 127.0.0.1:3000;
  keepalive 128;
}

# This defines the vhost, configure based on your setup
server {
  listen       80;
  server_name  my.public.server;

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://npomf/;
    proxy_redirect off;

    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
  }

}

For SSL support, add another server block after the previous one containing the following.

server {
  listen       443;
  server_name  my.public.server;

  # If you're worried about SSL you should know to point the
  # 'ssl_certificate' and 'ssl_certificate_key' to your own
  # locations
  ssl_certificate      /etc/nginx/ssl/server.crt;
  ssl_certificate_key  /etc/nginx/ssl/server.key;

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://npomf/;
    proxy_redirect off;

    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
  }
}

In production, nginx should handle serving uploaded files. Depending on your configuration, your nginx config might look different. The example given below is a stripped down version of aww.moe's configuration. You may want to consider adding CSP headers, gzip compression or expiration headers along with the charset.

upstream npomf {
  server 127.0.0.1:3000;
  keepalive 128;
}
server {
  listen 80;
  listen [::]:80 ipv6only=on;

  server_name your.site;

  location / {
    root /path/to/npomf/files;
    try_files $uri @npomf;

    charset UTF-8;
  }

  location @npomf {
    proxy_pass http://npomf/;
    proxy_redirect off;

    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
  }
}

In the nginx main config, you'll have to change the client_max_body_size in order to allow uploads larger than 1MB. You should change it to whatever you choose as the max upload size in the config file.

http {
  ...
  client_max_body_size 100m;
  ...
}
