# How to install locally $ cabal install --only-dependencies $ cabal build $ dist/build/guide/guide And go to . # How to install on a server I'm going to use Digitalocean and Ubuntu, but you can use anything else. Create a droplet with Ubuntu. Install GHC: $ add-apt-repository ppa:hvr/ghc $ apt-get update $ apt-get install ghc-7.10.3 cabal-install-1.22 Add cabal-install, GHC, and the cabal dir to `PATH` by adding /opt/cabal/1.22/bin:/opt/ghc/7.10.3/bin:$HOME/.cabal/bin to `PATH` in `~/.bashrc` and then doing `source ~/.bashrc`. Clone and build `guide`: $ git clone https://github.com/aelve/guide $ cd guide $ cabal update $ cabal install --dependencies-only $ cabal build Delete the contents of `static/tracking.html` (because otherwise information about visits will be sent to me): $ truncate -s 0 static/tracking.html Make a new subdomain in Apache. For me, it means writing this to `/etc/apache2/sites-available/guide.conf`: ~~~ ServerName guide.aelve.com ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass / http://0.0.0.0:8080/ ProxyPassReverse / http://0.0.0.0:8080/ ~~~ Enable the site: $ a2ensite guide $ service apache2 reload Create a daemon. This goes to `/etc/init/guide.conf` (the path is going to be something other than `/root/guide` for you): ~~~ start on filesystem or runlevel [2345] stop on runlevel [!2345] chdir /root/guide env LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 exec dist/build/guide/guide ~~~ And start the daemon: $ service guide start
