Screencast

How to Setup a VPS for io.js Development - (3:06 installing io.js)

TL;DR

If you kinda know what you're doing already:

echo "v1.0.3" > /tmp/IOJS_VER
curl -fsSL bit.ly/iojs-dev -o /tmp/iojs-dev.sh; bash /tmp/iojs-dev.sh

Or, if you don't need any developer tools and you just want io.js

# Or if you don't need any development tools
echo "v1.0.3" > /tmp/IOJS_VER
curl -fsSL bit.ly/iojs-min | bash

Apple OS X

First you need to Install XCode Command Line Tools

xcode-select --install

Then you need to Accept the XCode License by running any command installed by Xcode with sudo. We'll use git.

sudo git --version

You can scroll to the bottom by hitting shift+G (capital G).

Type agree and hit enter to accept the license.

Now you can install io.js (the new node.js)

# Specify the version of iojs to install
echo "v1.0.3" > /tmp/IOJS_VER

# And install away!
curl -fsSL bit.ly/iojs-dev -o /tmp/iojs-dev.sh; bash /tmp/iojs-dev.sh

TODO: Make it easier to accepting the license (automatic?)

Ubuntu Linux

# Specify the version of iojs to install
echo "v1.0.3" > /tmp/IOJS_VER

# And install away!
wget -nv bit.ly/iojs-dev -O /tmp/iojs-dev.sh; bash /tmp/iojs-dev.sh

Other things you should know

NOTE: If you have node installed, this script will rename it so that it isn't overwritten by the iojs installer.

This is what gets installed:

• rsync
• curl
• wget
• git
• xcode / brew / build-essential / pkg-config / gcc
• iojs (including npm and node symlink)
• jshint

NOTE: If fail2ban is not already securing ssh, you will be asked to install it.

Front-End Extras

These are not installed, but you may wish to use them if you're doing front-end work as well

• bower
• uglifyjs
• yo
• jade
• less
