Server scripts

This is the source for the scripts discussed in https://robots.thoughtbot.com/improving-user-experience-with-shell-scripts

Both scripts are in the bin/ directory of the repo that contains all the markdown documents for blog posts. Users run bin/server and everything is automatically set up for them to view a local preview of the blog. bin/server-setup is a dependency of bin/server and is never run directly by users.

Maitre-d is the name of the "blog engine" discussed in the article.

# Building a tar file chunk-by-chunk.

# This is a quick bit of sample code for streaming data to a tar file,
# building it piece-by-piece. The tarfile is built on-the-fly and streamed
# back out. This is useful for web applications that need to dynamically
# build a tar file without swamping the server.

App configuration in environment variables: for and against

For (some of these as per the 12 factor principles) 

1) they are are easy to change between deploys without changing any code

2) unlike config files, there is little chance of them being checked
into the code repo accidentally

3) unlike custom config files, or other config mechanisms such as Java

Let's set up Camlistore on a Linux server, with blobs stored in s3. This seems to be the currently best-supported option for "cloud" deployment.

This is meant as a supplement to the official server config doc. Read through both docs before you start.

http://camlistore.org/docs/server-config

This blog post is also recommended reading.

I've posted my config files for reference, but they will be created the first time you run camlistored (for the server) and camput init (for the client) so don't copy them.
