Panc's template Svelte project!

This project includes:

• Sveltekit
• Typescript
• ESLint
• Tailwind
• SurrealDB

And for deployment

• Linode
• Nginx
• Certbot
• PM2

This guide will help you through the steps of building and deploying a sveltekit+pocketbase app. It is broken down into 4 chapters. It requires you to have a decent commandline knowledge, and experience in node, sveltekit.

IMPORTANT : This entire project will cost just $5 per month, excluding domain. This cost will increase as soon as your Linode subscription is reached.

Chapter 1: Initialise

This chapter requires you to have installed node and npm

After installing surrealDB, start it with this command:

 surreal.exe start --user root --pass root file:YOUR_PROJECT_PATH\surreal_storage

This will instantiate a server at your local machine. You can access it by following the link.

Navigate back out of /pb and into /web. In a diffirent terminal than pocketbase, open up node. The link node gives as a response should direct to a working demo application.

npm i

&&

npm run dev

Chapter 3: Server Setup & First Deploy

IMPORTANT: Make sure to change all mentions of SITENAME to your domain name. Having a (sub)domain is required for this chapter.

IMPORTANT: Whenever i speak of the file #/, it is the server folder 1 step outside of /root. This is where a lot of installations are located.

Run this in your /web folder. This will create a build directory that holds the website data.

npm i -D @sveltejs/adapter-node
npm run build

Also copy the /pb/pocketbase folder. Change the pocketbase.exe to the linux version. These two folders we'll be using to start our server. You get the linux version from here:

TODO

To create a production version of your app on a server:

Make sure you have node and npm installed. This is done like so:

TODO

Create the /web and /pb folders in /root folder. This is done like so:

TODO

Navigate to /web like so:

TODO

In this folder, insert the 'build' file we made. Navigate back to /pb, using cd .. and then to pocketbase. This is where we insert the pocketbase folder.

You are now done setting up the files, let's execute our programs locally.

Navigate to /usr/lib/systemd/system and create a new file. Insert the following:

[Unit]

Description 	= pocketbase

[Service]
Type			= simple
User			= root
Group			= root
LimitNOFILE 	        = 4096
Restart			= always
RestartSec  	        = 5s
StandardOutput	        = append:/root/pb/errors.log
StandardError           = append:/root/pb/errors.log
ExecStart		= /root/pb/pocketbase serve --http="localhost:8000"

[Install]
WantedBy		= multi-user.target

Then, execute this command:

TODO

After this, we also do a similar thing for node: Install pm2 like this:

TODO

Then, execute this command:

TODO

You are now done executing the programs, but we still want to make it accessible to the public. This is done with nginx.

Install pm2 like this:

TODO

Then, navigate to #/etc/...:
