Install OpenEats without Docker and run on Apache2

Install dependencies

apt-get install python3 python3-pip git build-essential

Nodejs

Install nodejs

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x -o nodesource_setup.sh
bash nodesource_setup.sh

Further help to installing nodejs: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-node-js-on-debian-8

Database

We will use Mariadb but if you have working MySQL server you can skip the Mariadb installation part.

install Mariadb

Add mariadb repository to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mariadb.conf

apt-get install software-properties-common dirmngr
apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0xF1656F24C74CD1D8
add-apt-repository 'deb [arch=amd64,i386,ppc64el] http://ftp.bme.hu/pub/mirrors/mariadb/repo/10.1/debian stretch main'
apt-get update
apt-get install mariadb-server

Create openeats user and database in mariadb (ssh)

Log into your MySQL database

mysql -p

Create database

create database openeats;

Create a database user and password

Change username and password. You will have to change in configuration files too-

grant all privileges on openeats.* to 'username'@'localhost' identified by "password";

Commit changes

flush privileges;

Exit from mysql

exit;

Create directory infrastructure

mkdir /opt/openeats/
mkdir /opt/openeats/openeats-apache2/

Set up the openeats-api

cd /opt/openeats/

Get the source of openeats-api from git

git clone https://github.com/open-eats/openeats-api.git
cd /opt/openeats/openeats-api

Install the python requirements

pip3 install -r /opt/openeats/openeats-api/base/requirements.txt

Create .env environment file

touch /opt/openeats/openeats-api/.env

Edit the created .env file and insert the following data in it

Read the comments carefully and change the necessary parts to your configuration.

Our api will listen on port 5210.

# Database config
MYSQL_HOST=localhost
MYSQL_DATABASE=openeats
MYSQL_USER=username
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password

# Set this to `true`.

# Node config

NODE_URL=openeats.domain.com:5200 # As far as I tested the port can be anything here we wont use it
NODE_API_URL=https://openeats.domain.com  # the openeats domain with http or https
NODE_LOCALE=en

Edit the /opt/openeats/openeats-api/base/prod-entrypoint.sh file

The paths should be adjusted to your infrastructure

#!/usr/bin/env sh

BASEDIR=/opt/openeats/openeats-api

# Update the DB if it needs it and compile static files.
python3 $BASEDIR/manage.py migrate --no-input
python3 $BASEDIR/manage.py collectstatic --no-input

# Start up gunicorn
bash $BASEDIR/base/gunicorn_start.sh

Edit the /opt/openeats/openeats-api/base/gunicorn_start.sh file

The paths should be adjusted to your infrastructure

#!/usr/bin/env sh

# Activate the virtual environment
cd $DJANGODIR
export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=$DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE
export PYTHONPATH=$DJANGODIR:$PYTHONPATH

exec gunicorn ${DJANGO_WSGI_MODULE}:application \
  --name $NAME \
  --workers $NUM_WORKERS \

  --bind=$API_URL

Create systemd service to run the api

Create and edit /lib/systemd/system/openeats.service

[Unit]
Description=OpenEats
After = mariadb.service systemd-user-sessions.service network-online.target systemd-networkd.service

[Service]
Type=simple
User=root

EnvironmentFile=/opt/openeats/openeats-api/.env
ExecStart =/usr/bin/ionice -c 3 /usr/bin/nice -n 18 /bin/bash /opt/openeats/openeats-api/base/prod-entrypoint.sh
Restart = always
RestartSec = 1

# Configures the time to wait before service is stopped forcefully.
TimeoutStopSec=2000

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Start the api

systemctl start openeats.service

Check if the api running correctly

systemctl status openeats.service

Set up the openeats-web

cd /opt/openeats/

Get the source of openeats-Web from git

git clone https://github.com/open-eats/openeats-web.git
cd /opt/openeats-web/

Create environment file in /opt/openeats-web/ 

touch /opt/openeats-web/.env

Edit the created .env file and insert the following data in it

Read the comments carefully and change the necessary parts to your configuration.

This should contain the same values like .env in the openeats-api directory, but every line should start with export Our api will listen on port 5210.

# Database config
export MYSQL_HOST=localhost
export MYSQL_DATABASE=openeats
export MYSQL_USER=username
export MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password

# Django config
export API_URL=0.0.0.0:5210

export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=base.settings
export DJANGO_DEBUG=False

# If you are serving content behind an HTTPS proxy,
# Set this to `true`.

export NODE_API_URL=https://openeats.domain.com  # the openeats domain with http or https
export NODE_LOCALE=en

Load the environment values

cd /opt/openeats-web/
. ./.env

install the dependecies

npm install
npm install yarn

Build openeats-web

$ /opt/openeats-web/node_modules/yarn/bin/yarn start

This will create a build directory in /opt/openeats-web/

Apache 2

Install Apache2

apt-get install apache2
cd /opt/openeats/openeats-apache2/
ln -s /opt/openeats/openeats-web/build /opt/openeats/openeats-apache2/public-ui
ln -s /opt/openeats/openeats-api/static-files /opt/openeats/openeats-apache2/static-files
ln -s /opt/openeats/openeats-api/site-media /opt/openeats/openeats-apache2/site-media

Openeats will create the site-media directory when you upload the first image.

Edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.conf
