prerender-daemon
================
This repository will help you to install/uninstall [prerender](https://github.com/prerender/prerender) as a system services on a linux machine using [System V init scripts](http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/LSB_3.1.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptact.html).
By using this installer you will be able to start/stop a prerender instance as service (daemon):
```bash
sudo service prerender start|stop|restart
```
## Install
The installer assumes you've already installed [node.js](http://nodejs.org/), [npm](https://www.npmjs.org/)
Just clone the repository with
```bash
git clone https://github.com/lmammino/prerender-daemon.git
```
Then run
```bash
sudo prerender-daemon/install.sh
```
and it will do all the following **hard work** for you:
- Install prerender as global package
- Creates a dedicate `prerender` user that will be used to run the daemon
- Adds an init script to start the daemon
- Starts the daemon
The installation command support few parameters:
- `-h` or `--help`: Display the help
- `-v` or `--verbose`: more verbose output
- `-u` or `--uninstall`: Act as an unistaller removing prerender-daemon
- `-p` or `--node-prefix`: specify a custom node prefix (eg. "/usr")
- `-s` or `--server-script`: specify a custom server script that will be used to replace the default launch script (eg. to provide a custom configuration)
## Advanced configuration
If you want to provide a custom script to run your prerender server (with custom configuration variables and plugins) you can use a custom `server.js` file (you have an example on [`config/server.js.dist`](/config/server.js.dist)) and pass its path as `--server-script` parameter to the installer script. This file will be copied and substituted to the default `server.js` script in your `node_modules` folder.
## Uninstall
Just run
```bash
sudo prerender-daemon/install.sh --uninstall
```
To clean up everything that has been installed previously
