##://----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
##:// I provisioned a ubuntu 14.4 trusty ec2 instance with 15G space on SSD, then ran the following:

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys 58118E89F3A912897C070ADBF76221572C52609D

# copy aws env and aws.sh into place so we can copy certs from s3
mkdir .aws
cd .aws
vi env

## contents of "env"
		$ cat /home/ubuntu/.aws/env
		AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your aws key>
		AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<private key>

cd .scripts/
mkdir dockers
cd dockers

		sudo docker pull $IMAGE
		sudo docker run -v /home/ubuntu/<folder you want to sync it to>:/root/.aws/ --env-file=$AWS_CONFIG_ENV $IMAGE /bin/bash -c "$1"

# run aws.sh which runs the aws-cli so we can copy important stuff from s3
sh ~/.scripts/dockers/aws.sh "aws s3 sync s3://<your bucket>/<certs or whatever else stored at s3> /root/.aws/"
# note: this syncs all the stuff you want to /home/ubuntu/<folder you want to sync it to>

##/... deploy rancher on an ssl using jwilder reverse proxy
sudo mkdir /etc/nginx/
sudo mkdir /etc/nginx/ssl

##/... deploy the reverse proxy on ssl
docker run -d --name=nginx-proxy --restart=always -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -v /etc/nginx/ssl:/etc/nginx/certs -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro jwilder/nginx-proxy

##/... copy the keys in place afterwards otherwise they go bye-bye
cp ~/cli/<host.com>.ssl/<host.com>.crt /etc/nginx/ssl/<host.com>.crt
cp ~/cli/<host.com>.ssl/<host.com>.key /etc/nginx/ssl/<host.com>.key

##/... run the docker container for rancher/server and bind it to the /var/lib/mysql directory 
docker run -d -v /var/lib/mysql:/var/lib/mysql --restart=always --name=rancher-server -p 8080:8080 -e VIRTUAL_HOST=<host.com> -e VIRTUAL_PORT=8080 rancher/server;

# you can restart the proxy to make sure it recognizes the host, but it should do this automagically
docker restart nginx-proxy 

# note: if you restart the rancher server for any reason before the proxy, you will need to restart the proxy in my experience

### BAM!  instant deployment of rancher management reverse proxies
