This is a listener for receving signals sent by github.com through web hook. It mainly:

• listening for POST request from github at port 3000
• parse the JSON and fetch the information about the
  • repository name
  • repository url
  • the commit after push
• pass the above information through environment variable REPO_COMMIT
• spawn a process for deployment

npm install to install dependencies

node server.js to start the server

or use forever to guard the server daemon

npm install forever -g

forever start -forever.log -o out.log -e err.log server.js

DEPLOY_SCRIPT: the path for the deploy script. REPO_COMMIT: the first 7 digitals for this commit to be deployed.

Need to open the port 3000 for hosts 207.97.227.253, 50.57.128.197, 108.171.174.178.

In shorewall add this line:

ACCEPT:info net:207.97.227.253,50.57.128.197,108.171.174.178 $FW tcp 3000
