Provisioning of node + nginx designed for use with vagrant shell provisioner. No need for chef, puppet.

README.md

This is a simple shell script that is designed to provision both nginx and node on your machine. I primarily wrote it for use with Vagrant and an example Vagrantfile is included in the Gist as well.

Vagrantfile

# Template vagrant configuration file for rtc.io server
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  # All Vagrant configuration is done here. The most common configuration
  # options are documented and commented below. For a complete reference,
  # please see the online documentation at vagrantup.com.

  # Every Vagrant virtual environment requires a box to build off of.
  config.vm.box = "ubuntu-12.04"
  config.vm.box_url = "http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/precise/current/precise-server-cloudimg-vagrant-amd64-disk1.box"

  # Create a forwarded port mapping which allows access to a specific port
  # within the machine from a port on the host machine. In the example below,
  # accessing "localhost:8080" will access port 80 on the guest machine.
  # config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 80, host: 8080

  # Create a private network, which allows host-only access to the machine
  # using a specific IP.
  config.vm.network :private_network, ip: "192.168.33.10"

  # provision using the shell provisioner
  config.vm.provision :shell do |shell|
    shell.inline = "curl -s https://gist.github.com/DamonOehlman/5754302/raw/provision-nginx-node.sh | sh"
