Load onto a device without installing OS
Get the coder source tree using the command line: git clone https://github.com/googlecreativelab/coder
Set your working directory to the coder node app root: cd coder-base
Install node modules required for coder: npm install
Replace the first group of lines with:
exports.listenIP = '127.0.0.1';
exports.listenPort = '8081';
exports.httpListenPort = '8080';
exports.cacheApps = true;
exports.httpVisiblePort = '8080';
exports.httpsVisiblePort = '8081';
On Mac OS X no changes are needed in config.js. Possibly this also is true for other OSes.
If you are on Linux run this command. You must have cd'd into the coder-base directory within your coder installation.
echo "" > sudo_scripts/setpipass
Probably you don't want Coder to try to set a system password for the pi account. In fact, it may best if coder didn't perform any actions using sudo so we change this instance to something innocuous. (Maybe the coder source can be changed to specify the sudo tool in config.js.)
In coder-base/apps/auth/app.js b/coder-base/apps/auth/app.js, change line 355 and line 440 from
var setpass = spawn( '/usr/bin/sudo', [setpipass] );
to
var setpass = spawn( '/bin/echo', [setpipass] );
Type into the command line:
node server.js
And wait. The server should be running at https://127.0.0.1:8081. Note that if you don't specify https you may find the page hangs until timeout.
