DISCLAIMER!

These instructions are correct as of April 1st 2016

Start by flashing a SD card with the latest Raspbian Jessie Lite image. You can get it from Raspberry Pi website

Do this in your Raspberry Pi as 'pi' user

Boot it, launch raspi-config to perform (at least) the following configurations:

# as 'pi' user
sudo raspi-config

1. expand filesystem
1. change default user password
A3) setup memory split as you wish (I recommend 16Mb for GPU)

Optionally:

1. setup overclocking.

Secure your installation

Delete generated SSH keys and recreate them. (why this matters? read it here)

# as 'pi' user
sudo rm -v /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*
sudo dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server
sudo reboot

After the previous step you've created new SSH keys.

Update installed packages

# as 'pi' user
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Install additional packages

(needs validation if all packages are recent enough)

# as 'pi' user
sudo apt install -y python-virtualenv python-pip git uwsgi uwsgi-plugin-python
sudo pip install -U click
sudo reboot

Meanwhile, go get the goodies while Raspberry Pi is rebootting

(We assume you know about ssh keys and have one "at hand", you'll need to copy it)

Clone piku repo somewhere and copy files to your Raspberry Pi

# as yourself in your desktop/laptop computer
scp piku.py uwsgi-piku.service pi@your_machine:/tmp
scp your_public_ssh_key.pub    pi@your_machine:/tmp

Back to the Pi

Prepare uWSGI (part one):

# as 'pi' user
sudo ln -s `which uwsgi` /usr/local/bin/uwsgi-piku
sudo systemctl disable uwsgi
sudo cp /tmp/uwsgi-piku.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable uwsgi-piku

Create 'piku' user and set it up

# as 'pi' user
sudo adduser --disabled-password --gecos 'PaaS access' --ingroup www-data piku
sudo su - piku
# this is now done as 'piku' user
mkdir ~/.ssh
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
cp /tmp/piku.py ~/piku.py
python piku.py setup
python piku.py setup:ssh /tmp/id_rsa.pub
# return to 'pi' user
exit

Prepare uWSGI (part two):

# as 'pi' user
sudo systemctl start uwsgi-piku
sudo systemctl status uwsgi-piku.service

If you're still here, odds are your Pi is ready for work

Go back to your machine and try these commands:

# as yourself in your desktop/laptop computer
ssh piku@your_machine
