Final Project

Recap

This class has touched many subjects:

terminal
bash
bash streams, redirection & pipes
Linux file system & permissions
package manager
version control
bash scripting
cron
web servers
systemd
additional user space applications

At this point multiple web projects have been deployed to your Linux machine.

Going through the concepts and practicing is how you will become comfortable with the concepts and skills in this course.

For your final project you will be required to create two initialization scripts.

An initialization script is a bash script that is executed after a new virtual machine is created and configures the machine completely and automatically.

Once you have an initialization script for a specific project you can spin up a new Ubuntu machine on any device and run one script which will go through all the steps necessary to deploy a project. Initialization scripts are used commonly in the cloud computing world.

The Scripts

react-tic-tac-toe-configuration-and-deployment.sh
spring-todo-mvc-configuration-and-deployment.sh

React

Create an initialization script that when run on a new Ubuntu 22.04 image configures the machine and deploys the react-tic-tac-toe-tutorial project.

Spring

Create an initialization script that when run on a new Ubuntu 22.04 image configures the machine and deploys the spring-todo-mvc project.

Note

More information about each required deployment will be provided in an upcoming article.

Example Initialization Script

As you have not seen an example of an initialization script we will provide one example for the angular-tour-of-heroes project in the next article.
