# Documentation My_webapp
|
|
|
|
In addition to the application's Readme.md, here are some useful tips.
|
|
|
|
## Automatic update of the site content
|
|
|
|
The application creates a new user with limited rights: it can connect (with a password) through SFTP to access the `/var/www/my_webapp` directory (or `/var/www/my_webapp__<number>` if there are several installations of this application).
|
|
|
|
This configuration requires updating the site content manually, with a password connection.
|
|
|
|
If you want to automate things, you need to be able to connect without typing a password (i.e. "non-interactive"). Here are the steps to follow to get there:
|
|
- Enable public key connection, in `/etc/ssh/ssh/sshd_config`, on the server
|
|
- Create a public/private key pair for your script on the "writing" computer - without a protective passphrase.
|
|
- Copy the public key to the server, in `/var/www/my_webapp(__#)/.ssh/authorized_keys`
|
|
- Set the user `webapp#` as owner of the file and directory
|
|
- You can now connect without a password, with `sftp -b`, `lftp` or other SFTP clients.
|
|
|
|
NB: The port number to use for the SFTP connection is the one used for the SSH, and configured in `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`.
|
|
|
|
This tip allows you to automatically update your site. For example, the makefile of the Pelican tool allows you to use `make ftp_upload`.
