Online deployment routine with meteor up

Might be useful for people trying to deploy online.

Setup

• Create a directory deploy.
• Create the following files:
  • deploy/mup.js (attached below)
  • deploy/private/id_rsa.pub
  • deploy/private/id_rsa (ask @virgile-dev)
• install mup: https://github.com/kadirahq/meteor-up

Commands

• npm install -g mup
• cd deploy
• mup deploy --settings=../config/development/settings.json

Other commands:

• mup logs
• mup start
• mup stop

Notes

Mup does not like the output of the server start for some reason:

(...)
[your-host.com] - Start Meteor
[your-host.com] - Start Meteor: SUCCESS
[your-host.com] - Verifying Deployment
[your-host.com] x Verifying Deployment: FAILED
