Installing Form.io Enterprise on Ubuntu Sever

This is a complete installation script of a standalone Form.io server within Ubuntu Server. You must upgrade one of your Form.io projects to Enterprise to get this working.

setup.sh

#!/bin/bash
sudo apt-get -y update
sudo apt-get -y upgrade
sudo apt-get -y install build-essential checkinstall

# If you are using VirtualBox, you will probably also want to install ssh.
#   sudo apt-get install ssh
#   sudo service ssh start
#   sudo systemctl enable ssh
#
# You can then enable Port Forwarding (with NAT) with local port of
# 2222 to virtual box port of 22, and then log in using the following command.
#
#   ssh -p 2222 formio@localhost
