Dubplate

A simple HTTP redirection agent for your VPS. Allows one to redirect
requests for to . Useful if
you're building apps on [Heroku][heroku].

Dubplate was written in [Node.js][node] and [CoffeeScript][cs]. These
are the only hard dependencies.

Give Me a Dubplate

The easiest way to install Dubplate, by far, is through NPM:

``bash
npm install -g coffee-script dubplate
`

In order to execute the binary, you need CoffeeScript installed
globally.

Usage

On startup, Dubplate reads from a list of whitelisted domains in
/etc/dubplate.json...

`json
{
"port": 80,
"whitelist": [
"example.com"
]
}
`

It's an array of Strings that are iterated over upon each request in
order to determine which sites are authorized to redirect.

Save this and run the following command to start up Dubplate:

`bash
$ dubplate
`

This will start the server on and begin serving
requests immediately. You can also pass --port=80 to run the server on
a more reasonable port number. Running dubplate with no arguments
defaults to using a whitelist config at config/whitelist.json and
listening on port 3000.

$3

Dubplate comes with a cookbook and Chef scripts in this repo. You can
clone down the repo on your box and run chef-solo to get everything
you need. Plus, you can override the generated /etc/dubplate.json with
your own configuration!

Note: Requires Ruby 1.9+

`bash
$ gem install chef
$ git clone https://github.com/tubbo/dubplate.git
$ cd dubplate
$ chef-solo -J config/yourmachine.json
``

Development

Dubplate was written with [CoffeeScript][cs] because I like it.

Please submit your contributions along with tests and in a Git or GitHub
pull request.
