Introduction

For this task we are going to configure a duplicity script wrapper. Unregarded of the installation instructions it's expected that you have already signed up for an Amazon account and know how to use their services.

Requirements

Ubuntu server
duplicity, Git, GnuPG
MySQL

Before doing all this you have to create a bucket in your AWS console. Or just use AWS cli tool in order to create one.

Install pip (if not installed already):

$ curl -O https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

Install AWS cli tool:

$ sudo pip install awscli

Required

Ubuntu 14.04+ LTS

Update OS packages

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade

VestaCP

Installation

Install parameters as follows:

Web Server > Nginx + Apache > Yes

Using Let’s Encrypt (public beta) with Vesta Control Panel

Install the Let’s Encrypt ACME Client

Follow the instructions at https://letsencrypt.readthedocs.org. Assuming you installed as root, the client will be now be located at /root/letsencrypt.

Request a Certificate

By default:

The beta client will use the test infrastructure to issue a certificate, and thus won’t be trusted by browsers;
The client uses a temporary web server to authenticate the host which will conflict with the existing web server(s);

Continuous deployment with git on Windows

These are some notes to accompany my talk on continuous deployment for ASP.NET with git. Here you'll find all the tools, commands & setup that I mentioned.

I've tried a bunch of different methods of deploying, and find this to be the simplest, easiest way to set up continuous deploy for ASP.NET while still being powerfull and flexible.

Firstly, I like to ensure I have the following tools installed, to make life on windows a bit less painful:

	<!-- Facebook Conversion code -->
	{% assign fb_pixel_id = 'yourpixelid' %}

	<script>(function() {
	var _fbq = window._fbq \|\| (window._fbq = []);
	if (!_fbq.loaded) {
	var fbds = document.createElement('script');
	fbds.async = true;
	fbds.src = '//connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbds.js';
	var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];

	<?php


	# "server":{"host":"x","port":22,"username":"x","password":"x","path":"\\/root\\/back","type":"scp","email":"[email protected]"}

	function backup($user) {
	global $config;

	$postdata = http_build_query(array('cpanel_jsonapi_user' => $user,
	'cpanel_jsonapi_module' => 'Fileman',

	// general update
	sudo apt-get update

	// general upgrade
	sudo apt-get upgrade

	// install midnight commander
	sudo apt-get install mc

	// install git

	#Redirect a single page:
	Redirect 301 /pagename.php http://www.domain.com/pagename.html
