    EasyEngine (ee) is a linux shell-script collection, which makes managing your WordPress and Nginx sites on an Ubuntu server easy and fun. Now EE4 using Docker.

    I would like to install EasyEngine + NodeBB like example.com/forum/
    Any ideas how to build it together?

    There have topic https://community.easyengine.io/t/how-to-run-node-js-app-on-v4/11482 about it from EE developer and his explanation looks like very hard. My devops skills still low. Maybe for NodeBB team it will not so hard and we will receive manual how to use it together.

    Installation guides and examples of nginx configurations are welcome.

    Thx!

    ok this worked:

    $ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -
    $ sudo apt-get install -y git nodejs build-essential nginx
    $ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 7F0CEB10
    $ echo 'deb http://downloads-distro.mongodb.org/repo/ubuntu-upstart dist 10gen' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb.list
    $ sudo apt-get update
    $ sudo apt-get install mongodb-org
    $ mongo
    use nodebb
    db.createUser( { user: "nodebb", pwd: "<Enter in a secure password>", roles: [ "readWrite" ] } )
    exit
    $ sudo nano /etc/mongodb.conf //uncomment auth = true
    $ sudo service mongodb restart
    $ sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/yourdomain.com.conf

    // copy & paste & edit server_name:

    server {
    listen 80;

    server_name domain.com; location / { proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true; proxy_pass http://io_nodes; proxy_redirect off; # Socket.IO Support proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; }

    }

    upstream io_nodes {
    ip_hash;
    server 127.0.0.1:4567;
    server 127.0.0.1:4568;
    }

    // write out

    $ git clone -b v0.9.x https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB.git nodebb
    $ cd nodebb
    $ npm install --production
    $ npm start

    // finish install from browser: http://server.ip:4567

    $ nano config.json

    // just insert port line

    {
    "url": "http://localhost:4567",
    "port": ["4567", "4568"],
    "secret": "34a78c7d-df06-4d82-9c0b-0a3b528822ec",
    "database": "mongo",
    "port": 4567,
    "mongo": {
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": "27017",
    "username": "nodebb",
    "database": "nodebb"
    }
    }

    // write out

    $ ./nodebb restart

    // now it works without port, on 2 instances
