Create a Production Configuration file at [dspace-angular]/src/environmentenvironments/environment.prod.ts
. You may wish to use the environment.template.ts
as a starting point. This environment.prod.ts
file can be used to override any of the default configurations specified in the environment.common.ts (in that same directory). At a minimum this file MUST include the "ui" and "rest" sections similar to the following (keep in mind, you only need to include settings that you need to modify):
Code Block |
---|
export const environment = { // The "ui" section defines where you want Node.js to run/respond. It may correspond to your public URL, but it also may not (if you are running behind a proxy). // In this example, we are setting up our UI to just use localhost, port 4000. // This is a common setup for when you want to use Apache or Nginx to handle HTTPS and proxy requests to Node on port 4000 ui: { ssl: false, host: 'localhost', port: 4000, // NOTE: Space is capitalized because 'namespace' is a reserved string in TypeScript nameSpace: '/' } // This example is valid if your Backend is publicly available at https://api.mydspace.edu/server/ // The REST settings MUST correspond to the public URL of the backend. Usually, this means they must be kept in sync // with the value of "dspace.server.url" in the backend's local.cfg rest: { ssl: true, host: 'api.mydspace.edu', port: 443, // NOTE: Space is capitalized because 'namespace' is a reserved string in TypeScript nameSpace: '/server' } }; |
yarn start
" and trying to access it via http://[mydspace.edu]:4000/
from your web browser. KEEP IN MIND, we highly recommend always using HTTPS for Production.environment.common.ts
configuration file you can also copy them into this same file.Build the User Interface for Production. This uses your environment.prod.ts
and the source code to create a compiled version of the UI in the [dspace-angular]/dist
folder

yarn run build:prod |
environment.prod.ts
, then you will need to rebuild the UI application (i.e. rerun this command).Assuming you are using PM2, create a JSON configuration file describing how to run our UI application. This need NOT be in the same directory as the dspace-angular codebase itself (in fact you may want to put the parent directory or another location). Keep in mind the "cwd" setting (on line 5) must be the full path to your [dspace-angular]
folder.

{ "apps": [ { "name": "dspace-angular", "cwd": "/home/dspace/dspace-angular", "script": "yarn", "args": "run serve:ssr", "interpreter": "none" } ] } |
Now, start the application using PM2 using the configuration file you created in the previous step
Code Block |

# In this example, we are assuming the config is named "dspace-angular.json" pm2 start dspace-angular.json # To see the logs, you'd run # pm2 logs # To stop it, you'd run # pm2 stop dspace-angular.json |

sudo apt install apache2
sudo en2mod proxy; sudo a2enmod proxy_http
Now, setup a new VirtualHost for your site (preferably using HTTPS / port 443) which proxies all requests to PM2 running on port 4000.

<VirtualHost _default_:443> .. setup your host how you want, including log settings... SSLEngine on SSLCertificateFile [full-path-to-PEM-cert] SSLCertificateKeyFile [full-path-to-cert-KEY] # Proxy all HTTPS requests from Apache to PM2 on port 4000 ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:4000/ ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:4000/ </VirtualHost> |
[dspace-angular]/config/ssl/
folder and add a key.pem
and cert.pem
to that folder (they must have those exact names)...
