#Node - Running in Production This gist is based on the excellent post by @hacksparrow which is found at http://www.hacksparrow.com/running-express-js-in-production-mode.html. The main principle is that you want the application to detect that it is running on a production server and to use the production configuration. The way to do this is to set the NODE_ENV=production. To do this you need to do the following:

$ export NODE_ENV=production

But we have a little problem here. The NODE_ENV environment variable will be lost if the server restarts, so it is safer to put it in the .bash_profile file. That way the variable will set again every time the system reboots. You will find the file in your home directory. It's a hidden file, so you can't see it unless you do a ls -la. We will append the export command to the .bash_profile file.

// This example shows how to render pages that perform AJAX calls
// upon page load.
//
// Instead of waiting a fixed amount of time before doing the render,
// we are keeping track of every resource that is loaded.
//
// Once all resources are loaded, we wait a small amount of time
// (resourceWait) in case these resources load other resources.
//
// The page is rendered after a maximum amount of time (maxRenderTime)

Setup modern.ie vagrant boxes

Since modern.ie released vagrant boxes, it' no longer necessary to manually import the ova file to virtualbox, as mentioned here.

However, the guys at modern.ie didn't configured the box to work with WinRM. This how-to addresses that, presenting steps to proper repackage these boxes, adding WinRM support. Additionally configures chocolatey package manager and puppet provisioner.
