kk so web.main: start: nginx: path to nginx.conf node: npm start?
And one needs to have some settings for 0.0.0.0 port 8080 , how do we configure t?

right in the nginx conf
so need for extra web workers?
I'll run with that see how it goes, thanks

danhunsaker 2017-08-15 17:20:09 UTC #30

No prob!

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:20:19 UTC #31

ah -.- to no avail
Maybe i need to have a something like phonenix to serve it. not able to get it running, and ngrok loads and diplays the right title but no site...

danhunsaker 2017-08-15 17:20:36 UTC #33

Hmm. I wonder if the developer tools (in the browser) would show any errors.

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:20:51 UTC #34

Yeah... Nothing -.-'

I'll try going with a Phoenix server

danhunsaker 2017-08-15 17:21:17 UTC #35

Huh. Generally when my Vue apps aren't working it's because something isn't loading properly.

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:21:47 UTC #36

might be. Though it works great in yarn run dev mode

danhunsaker 2017-08-15 17:21:57 UTC #37

Dev mode tends to work differently. When/where are you running the yarn run build ?

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:22:06 UTC #38

after nanobox run, with a local dns gogo:8080

danhunsaker 2017-08-15 17:22:14 UTC #39

Hmmm. Maybe move that to a deploy.config:transform hook and see if that helps?

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:22:23 UTC #40

it's probably the configuration yes, im going to try with phoenix, looks relatively straight foreward, just need to get something out there >P
tried 4-5 diffrent nanobox deploy dry-run s

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:22:43 UTC #41

to no avail. I think i need something to back vue up with, also i couldnt find the production build app, and the node start command did not work, nor npm. Though i am sure, that is because of my lack of understanding how to go about doing it right

danhunsaker 2017-08-15 17:22:56 UTC #42

I suspect you don't actually need Node in production at all...
Just tell Nginx to use the build directory as the document root, and that should do it for you.

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:23:25 UTC #43

alright i'll go at it

Yes. Read up abit on Nginx. It should be enough with Nginx

Now another hour++ or so of reading, then we try again.... for the love of knowledge , looking foreward to getting back to Elm ah Vuejs just feels weak and a bit broken. Though it's quick to get up and running with.

Spent two and a half weeks learning Nix and NixOS before finding out it's a pain to work with Mutable javascript. It's a Haskell heaven though, for web Nanobox was the clear winner in my opinion. Looking foreward to being able to adjust the system images, like the fact that the ubuntu image is sytemD free.

danhunsaker 2017-08-15 17:23:48 UTC #44

There's really very little Ubuntu to it, but I do think it actually is using SystemD for the tiny bits that are.

Still, your app never has to interact with those. Or really gets to.

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:24:05 UTC #45

Can probably do some pretty cool stuff with Nanobox non dev related in the comming times it has a light touch, connectivity and flexible shape.

oslosharker1 2017-08-15 17:25:27 UTC #46

Well it's not that the applications im working with are in need of anything special as such, more of a long term thing

I'll most likely write a little blog post and get a POC up, in a weeks time

A blog post would be awesome!
