Installation

Install requirements

• Java
• PostgreSQL
• FFMPEG (brew install ffmpeg on OSX)
• ImageMagick (brew install imagemagick on OSX)

Create a user and database in PostgreSQL

On Ubuntu, PostgreSQL uses Linux user authentification:

sudo adduser same-day-different-lives

sudo -u postgres createuser -P same-day-different-lives
sudo -u postgres createdb --owner same-day-different-lives same-day-different-lives

Initialize the database

sudo -u same-day-different-lives psql < init_db.sql

Setup the configuration

Copy config.sample.edn to config.edn and change the database name, user, and password if necessary.

Create uploads directory

Create a directory uploads. Make sure that the web server has write permissions

Run

On Ubuntu:

sudo -u same-day-different-lives PORT=3040 java -jar same-day-different-lives.jar

Deploying

Check out the deploy folder for an example nginx configuration. Notice that this configuration removes the limit on client request sizes.

The deploy folder also includes an example systemd configuration.
