Test NodeBB 0.7 simulatenously?

[Guiri]

Is it possible to test the master on another domain (e.g., beta.domain.com) for my users to test out?

I was considering cloning it into another directory, without plugins, and hooking it up to the same Redis database with a different port, and proxying the sub domain to the new version. Thoughts?

Yeah, clone the db and copy the files. Edit configfile to beta.domain.com and change db settings

I use Mongodb but it should be the same

Do not use 0.7.x with the same db because 0.7 trash stuff, better with a clone. You can write "this is for demo only"

I am also waiting for 0.7.x to be stable!

This occurs on the last part of running ./nodebb setup:

Why do you run setup again.

1. Just copy the code to a new dir and change the config file.
2. Make a copy of the DB
3. Then git checkout master + ./nodebb upgrade (In the new setup)

Dont forget to set another port if you running it on the same server
