Scripts for installing and starting the app and nginx proxy. Includes systemd user service units and nginx configs for both user-mode 8443 and system-mode 443.
Local Kanban Nginx
Current User-Mode HTTPS Proxy
This repo includes a user-mode Nginx config that does not require sudo:
nginx -c /home/gahow/projects/kanban/deploy/nginx.user-8443.conf \
-p /home/gahow/projects/kanban/.nginx
It listens on:
https://gahow-pc.ipads-lab.se.sjtu.edu.cn:8443
It uses the self-signed certificate under deploy/certs/, so browsers will show a certificate warning unless the certificate is trusted locally.
Reload it with:
nginx -s reload \
-c /home/gahow/projects/kanban/deploy/nginx.user-8443.conf \
-p /home/gahow/projects/kanban/.nginx
Stop it with:
nginx -s stop \
-c /home/gahow/projects/kanban/deploy/nginx.user-8443.conf \
-p /home/gahow/projects/kanban/.nginx
Production 443 Proxy
For port 443, install deploy/nginx.local-kanban.conf into the system Nginx site directory and use a trusted certificate. The root domain serves the portal page, and individual apps keep their own ports:
sudo cp deploy/nginx.local-kanban.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/local-kanban
sudo ln -sf /etc/nginx/sites-available/local-kanban /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/local-kanban
sudo nginx -t
sudo systemctl reload nginx
The install script intentionally does not bind port 80 by default, because another local service may already own it. Enable HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect only when port 80 is free:
KANBAN_ENABLE_HTTP_REDIRECT=1 ./scripts/install-nginx-system.sh
The Node app should run only on localhost behind Nginx:
KANBAN_HOST=127.0.0.1 \
KANBAN_PORT=5180 \
KANBAN_AUTH_SECURE_COOKIE=1 \
KANBAN_REQUIRE_HTTPS=1 \
npm start
Kanban is then normally reached through the user-mode HTTPS proxy on:
https://gahow-pc.ipads-lab.se.sjtu.edu.cn:8443/
Persistent User Services
Use the user-level systemd units when the service should stay up without an open shell:
./scripts/install-user-systemd.sh
This installs and starts:
local-kanban.service
local-kanban-nginx-8443.service
Check them with:
systemctl --user status local-kanban.service
systemctl --user status local-kanban-nginx-8443.service
