This is my fork of Ghost 1.0 with changes to run on Azure App Service. Read here for a full introduction.
This repo is setup with a few branches for easier maintenance. The ghost
branch is where I commit the Ghost releases as they come out unchanged. The azure
branch (the default branch) is where I make only the changes necessary to get it running on Azure App Service. I rebase this branch off of ghost
as new releases come out. I then create a separate branch for each site I deploy. This way I can make theme customizations and tweaks to individual sites and rebase those changes off of the azure
branch.
- Add a
db.js
file in the root to make it easy to initialize/migrate a SQLite database (since I can't run the CLI tool on Azure). - Force
config.js
to get the port it should run on fromPORT
env variable instead ofSERVER_PORT
. This is to make iisnode happy. - Add
web.config
&iisnode.yml
- standard stuff to host node on IIS. - Add support for HSTS headers. Technically, this isn't required to get Ghost running on Azure, but you should probably do it anyway.
