Apostrophe in Production on Digital Ocean or any linux server

gistfile1.txt

1) Create a droplet 
   You will recieve an email with root password information.
2) login using ssh though your local remote terminal (find your ipaddress on the digital ocean droplet control panel) or use ssh authentication
    ssh root@ipaddress 
    password:write from email
    change password upon first login
3) Once login as a root. update latest ubuntu packages 
    sudo apt-get install update
    sudo apt-get install upgrade
4) Add a non-root user with root previlagies 
    sudo adduser student 
    setup password
    fillout the user details or leave it blank
5) Assign Sudo privilages to the new user 
    usermod -aG sudo student
6) login as a non-root user (exit -out from root user and ressh or ssh in new terminal window)
    ssh student@ipaddress
    enter new user password
    sucessfully loggedin
7) Setup sshkeys for the new user account so you dont have to enter password everytime to login from the same developer machine.
  i) Generate an an ssh-keypair on your local developer machine
  ssh-keygen
  ii) copy the generated public key from /.ssh/id_rsa.pub file on the developer machine 
  cat /.ssh/id_rsa.pub
  copy the content 
  iii) On the cloud linux machine on student user create a new folder & file to store sshkey
  mkdir ~/.ssh
  chmod 700 ~/.ssh
  nano ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
  Paste the copied ssh key from the developer machine
  chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
  exit
8) try login back in with student user name this time it wont ask you for a password.
10) Disable password login (recommanded to make it more secure)
login though root user account
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
PasswordAuthentication no

PubkeyAuthentication yes
ChallengeResponseAuthentication no

sudo systemctl reload sshd

now exit the ssh session and logback in though student account using sshkey authernication.

9) Setting up a basic firewall and allowing ssh connections to login
sudo ufw app list
sudo ufw allow OpenSSH
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw status

10) nodejs by adding the ppa
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x -o nodesource_setup.sh
sudo bash nodesource_setup.sh
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo apt-get install build-essential

11) Intall mongodb
echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu xenial/mongodb-org/3.6 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-3.6.list

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org

sudo service mongod start
** verify if the mongoddb service is running or not
cat /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log 

12) Install nginx
sudo apt-get install nginx

13) Allow nginx to access port 80
sudo ufw allow "Nginx HTTP" 
or
sudo ufw allow "Nginx HTTPS" for secure site

14) Install imagemagick 
sudo apt-get install imagemagick

sudo chmod -R a+r /usr/lib/node_modules/

15) Install mechanic to mange nginx reverse proxy
npm install -g mechanic
# Used to run things indefinitely restarting as needed
npm install -g forever

16) Deoply application using StageCoach deployment system
