## Packaging node.js application into a .deb file

Use this script to prepare your `node.js` web application for deployment on Debian-based system (only Ubuntu is tested).

You don't need any Debian tools for that, just the shell, `tar` and `ar`.

### Installation

    npm install nodeb

### Invocation

From your project's root:

    nodeb

If all goes well, `.deb` file will be created.

### Options

    -n don't include node_modules/, bower_components/, components/ in the package

    -o don't generate nginx config for insecure (http) server

    -p  (default 80) 

    -s generate nginx config for secure (https) server

    -t copy templates to nodeb_templates/ for customization and exit

    -u  (default "node")

    -v show generated files on stdout

    -w . If given, nginx config files will be created

### What's included

The package will be installed in `/opt`.

Files for `upstart`, `monit`, `logrotate`, and optionally `nginx` are created.  `npm install`

will be run on target system.

If `-s` option is given, nginx configuration for https reverse proxy server is generated.  Study the

[templates](https://github.com/punund/nodeb/tree/master/templates), or customize them using `-t`.
