Initial server setup script for a NodeJS, Gulp powered DEV configuration.

gulp-first-time-setup.sh

#!/bin/sh

## Run this script from a Terminal (or just copy/paste each command and run one at a time) when you first setup your server
## If you already used the gulp-user-data-setup.sh script code in the setup of a new Cloud Server (as per a Cobalt Apps tutorial) then this script does not need to be run

## Update Ubuntu
sudo apt-get update

## Install NodeJS and NPM
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | bash -
sudo apt-get install nodejs -y

## Install Gulp globally so that it can be run from the command line
npm install --global gulp-cli

## Append code to end of sudoers file that allows the www-data user to execute sudo commands
## This gives the Instant IDE Console the ability to perform administrative tasks
## Only use this code if working on a non-live/DEV server as it makes the server less secure
echo 'www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL' >> /etc/sudoers
