Hey Guys, I guess you want to checkout and install SkyHopper on your local PC or on an EC2 server with Ubuntu which is a Debian based Linux OS. The purpose of this is to checkout SkyHopper to another linux based OS as currenlty, we only support Amazon Linux for the installation instruction.
Now, here are some tips and instruction when installing the service into Ubuntu Version 14.04 LTS Client or server.
First is to remove old ruby version and upgrade it to version 2.2.4. Please careful not to over-upgrade it a more higher version as it will have dependency problems in the future. As of now we would only use Ruby version 2.2.4

1 |
<span class="pln">sudo apt</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="kwd">get</span><span class="pln"> remove ruby</span> |
The next step is to install some dependencies for Ruby.

Next we’re going to be installing Ruby using rbenv. Take note that there are other ways to install ruby that have their own benefits, most people prefer using rbenv these days, but if you’re familiar with rvm you can install using that method as you please. But for now I will just use rbenv.
Installing with rbenv is a simple two step process. First you install rbenv, and then ruby-build:

Install bundler using gem to get out from dependency hell, and ensures that the gems you need are present.
|
1 |
<span class="pln">gem install bundler</span> |
Install nodejs and npm for frontend dependencies
|
1 |
<span class="pln">sudo apt</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="kwd">get</span><span class="pln"> install nodejs nodejs</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">legacy npm </span> |
Install bower using npm
|
1 |
<span class="pln">sudo npm install bower </span><span class="pun">--</span><span class="kwd">global</span> |
Install necessary development libraries needed
|
1 |
<span class="pln">sudo apt</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="kwd">get</span><span class="pln"> install <span class="pln">libreadline</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">gplv2</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">dev</span> libncurses5</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">dev zlib</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">devel ncurses</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">devel </span><span class="pln">libssl</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">dev libmysqlclient</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">dev</span> |
Install MySQL Server
To install MySQL, run the following command from a terminal prompt:
|
1 |
<span class="cmd command">sudo apt-get install mysql-server</span> |
During the installation process you will be prompted to enter a password for the MySQL root user.
Once the installation is complete, the MySQL server should be started automatically. You can run the following command from a terminal prompt to check whether the MySQL server is running:
|
1 |
<span class="cmd command">sudo netstat -tap | grep mysql</span> |
When you run this command, you should see the following line or something similar:
|
1 |
tcp 0 0 localhost:mysql *:* LISTEN 2556/mysqld |
If the server is not running correctly, you can type the following command to start it:
|
1 |
<span class="cmd command">sudo service mysql restart</span> |
To install redis, please follow the instruction written here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-redis
Install nginx for websockets, traffic hosting and handling to be used in SkyHopper System.
|
1 |
<span class="cmd command">sudo apt-get install nginx</span> |
You will probably be prompted for your user’s password. Enter it to confirm that you wish to complete the installation. The appropriate software will be downloaded to your server and then automatically installed.
We can make sure that our web server will restart automatically when the server is rebooted by typing:
|
1 |
<span class="cmd command">sudo update-rc.d nginx defaults</span> |
Then we need to remove the default variable of nginx to replace it with SkyHopper
|
1 |
<span class="pln">sudo rm </span><span class="pun">/</span><span class="pln">etc</span><span class="pun">/</span><span class="pln">nginx</span><span class="pun">/</span><span class="pln">sites</span><span class="pun">-</span><span class="pln">available</span><span class="pun">/</span><span class="kwd">default</span> |
Then copy the reverse proxy to setup nginx. You might need to change some variables written as it needs to correspond to your skyhopper setup, for example the directory of your skyhopper files are located.

Up to this point it can be executed by Chef.
