10 Healthy Habits For Ghost Installation How to Set Up a Ghost Installation    Ghost is a brand-new CMS that is specifically designed for bloggers and content writers. It is a unique CMS with features that distinguish it from other CMS solutions, such as WordPress.    Ghost is simple to install and configure for production. In this article, we will employ ghost-CLI, an application for command line to setup and deploy Ghost quickly and quickly.      Installing Ghost    Ghost is a free blogging platform that provides an attractive interface for publishing and creating content. It was created as a non-profit project after an appeal for crowdfunding and is accessible without licensing restrictions. It is used by a variety of developers in the world, and it has a large community of support. It is a speedy light, responsive, and lightweight CMS that works on all kinds of devices.    To install Ghost, follow the steps below: First, log into your droplet via SSH and change the prompt for your user to # (it should be the only thing that appears on your screen). This will inform your terminal that it is installing the software. Run the command node-v to verify that it has been installed correctly.    After a few seconds, Ghost will ask you to enter your blog's URL. This is better instead of waiting until you've setup your domain and published your blog. This gives you the chance to test out your blog and fix any issues before putting it public.    Press enter to begin the installation process. It will take a couple of minutes to complete. When asked for your hostname use 127.0.0.1. (Using the default will make it impossible for Ghost to use IPv6 addresses and could cause an ECONNREFUSED later). Answer Y when asked if you would like to install Systemd.    This will set up Nginx for your Ghost blog. It redirects requests from port 80 to port 2368, which is the port Ghost runs on. This will make it easier for visitors to access your blog without adding the :2368 at the end. It will also set up the proper HTTP headers, so you'll be able to view your visitors' real IP addresses in your Ghost logs.    ghost installations will be required to add Ghost as a database user. Create a user with the name ghostuser with a password that is secure and a suitable username. Add it to the sudoers Group so that it can execute sudo commands. After doing this, su - ghostuser to start a login shell as the user named ghostuser.    Installing Nginx    Nginx can be used as a webserver for serving static content. It can also be used as a reverse proxy, and to connect to FastCGI programs. It is a less heavy alternative to Apache, which can offer better performance and a smaller footprint of memory.    The configuration files for Nginx can be loaded without the need to shut down and re-start. This is done by sending an alert to the master process which examines the syntax of the new configuration file and makes any changes. It will also send an email to the previous worker processes informing them to not accept any new connections and continue maintaining existing connections.    To create a configuration file for Nginx, open the "/etc/nginx/sites-available/" directory and then create a symbolic link to the file you want to use in the "/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/" directory. The symbolic links, or symlinks, will be used to track which of the Nginx server blocks are enabled. This will allow your Nginx server to respond to requests for your domain and the default site.    The syntax of Nginx is extremely flexible. You can configure a variety of things, like allowing SSL connections or setting reverse proxy servers, among other things. For more information, see the official Nginx documentation.    In contrast to Apache, Nginx uses an Asynchronous event-driven connection handling system instead of creating a new process for each request. This makes it more efficient, especially for websites that experience large volumes of traffic. It is possible to configure it to cache static pages on your site. This can boost performance.    Nginx can be utilized as a reverse proxy that routes clients' (e.g. web browser) requests to other servers. This can be helpful in load balancing and speeding up websites and ensuring additional security.    Once the Nginx server is running, you can verify that it is accepting HTTP requests using a tool like nginx's stat or looking at the logs located in the "/var/log/nginx/" directory on your Ubuntu machine. This will highlight any errors that may be occurring.    You can also use the systemctl command to start and stop Nginx. Enter the following command to accomplish this:    Configuring Ghost    Once you've set up Ghost, you can begin using it to publish your blog. You can also alter the look and feel of your website by using themes. There are a variety of themes available on Ghost that range from simple to sophisticated. Certain themes are free while others are not. Whatever theme you choose, keep in mind that the main function is to serve as a blogging platform. It's not made for more complicated pages, such as landing pages and eCommerce websites.    You can configure Ghost to use an SMTP email server to send notifications and newsletters. This is important to ensure that your customers get emails from you and don't miss any messages. Ghost is compatible with several credible SMTP providers. However, it's crucial to remember that you'll require an individual login and password for SMTP in addition to your Ghost account. It is recommended to write down or keep your SMTP information in a secure location.    A custom configuration file lets you to alter Ghost's default behavior, and tailor it to meet your specific requirements. You can make use of the ghost-cli command to create an individual config file. There are some settings that are required by default and many optional ones.    You can install an Redis cache adapter that allows Ghost to keep data in memory rather than in the database. This reduces response times by avoiding the necessity to pull data from a database each time a new page is rendered. This is particularly useful for sites with complex templates and high traffic sites that require a lot of helpers.    The command ghost-cli cache-adapter adapter> --configure_cache( The cache adapter is set up and the size of the cache determined. You can also alter the name of the cache, which is displayed in the admin panel.    Ghost must be kept up-to-date in order to function properly and remain secure. Ghost releases new versions of its software regularly. You can find information about how to upgrade the software on the official website. If you're upgrading to the latest version, be sure to back up your files and data first.    Beginning Ghost    After the Setup phase is completed and the Ghost will enter its Hunting phase. During this time, the Ghost will be visible to players and begin moving around the map, killing any human it comes across. This is the most hazardous aspect of the game and can be avoided by hiding in closets, rooms or behind furniture. The Ghost will only kill players that are in its line of sight, so it is important to be vigilant and stay hidden at all times.    In the DigitalOcean marketplace, select the "Droplet" option and select a plan to start with (the lowest priced plan is good for the moment). After you have created the droplet, make note of its public IP address. This is the IP address that you will be able to connect to via SSH.    Once your server is configured, you can start creating blog pages and posts. You can choose from a range of themes that are free as in addition to premium themes. The platform also allows a variety of integrations such as Google Analytics, Zapier, MailChimp, and more. It utilizes Markdown instead of visual WYSIWYG, which allows you focus on writing rather than designing. This makes it a great option for blogs, magazines, and portfolio sites.
