npm install cassimCassim is an easy CLI tool to create nginx vhosts pointing to a certain port.
I created this package to quickly open up ports while developing on a remote server on the go. For example, when I'm working on a create-react-app project, I can quickly debug it by typing cassim add 3000 which will create a subdomain at 3000.mydomain.com.
Cassim is also Ali Baba's brother. He couldn't open shit and was murdered by the thieves.
This package is still very crude and I've only tested it on my own Ubuntu server. You'll need a configured server with nginx running and you'll also need certbot if you need SSL.
Install cassim globally by running: npm i -g cassim or just invoke it with npx cassim
The first time you run cassim you'll be asked some questions about where your nginx configuration files are, and which domain you want to use. To be able to resolve the domain you'll configure your DNS-server with a wildcard domain pointing to your server's IP-address. For mydomain.com this would be: \*.mydomain.com.
If everything is configured properly, you should be able to run cassim add 3000 and a vhost will be created. If you've enabled SSL and installed certbot will be invoked, configuring SSL.
Cassim uses sudo to execute commands. Be sure to add your user to the sudoers file.
