==smeserver-rocketchat contrib==
{{WIP box}}
This contrib aims to reduce some of the setup for rocketchat and add some flexibility with settings

Add repos:

* [[epel]]
* [[Centos-sclo-rh]]
* [[User:ReetP|reetp]]

yum install rh-python34-python rh-mongodb26-mongodb rh-mongodb26-mongodb-server nodejs010 GraphicsMagick --enablerepo=centos-sclo-rh,epel

scl enable nodejs010 bash
npm install -g inherits
npm install -g n
n 0.10.40
exit

cd /root
curl -L https://rocket.chat/releases/latest/download -o rocket.chat.tgz
tar zxvf rocket.chat.tgz
mv bundle /opt/Rocket.Chat

cd /opt/Rocket.Chat/programs/server
npm install
npm install -g forever

patch mailcomposer.js to add From header. You can use this from wherever the patch file is (where should it be ?):
patch -p0 -i /opt/mailcomposer.patch

Install rocket chat contrib:

yum enablerepo=reetp install smeserver-rocketchat

db setprop rocketchat status enabled

signal-event post-upgrade;signal-event reboot

DB settings

rocketchat=service
TCPPort=3000
access=public
mailPort=25
mailURL=localhost
status=enabled

rh-mongodb26-mongod=service
TCPPort=27017
access=private
mongoURL=localhost
status=enabled

BEFORE we login for the first time we need to set up mail settings correctly:

From bash:

mongo rocketchat --eval 'db.rocketchat_settings.update({"_id" : "SMTP_Host"}, {$set: {"value":"localhost"}});'
mongo rocketchat --eval 'db.rocketchat_settings.update({"_id" : "From_Email"}, {$set: {"value":"admin@yourdomain.com"}});'

We can check the individual values set like this:

mongo rocketchat --eval 'db.rocketchat_settings.find({"_id":"From_Email"}, {_id:0, value:1}).shellPrint();'
mongo rocketchat --eval 'db.rocketchat_settings.find({"_id":"SMTP_Host"}, {_id:0, value: 1}).shellPrint();'

All values per _id:
mongo rocketchat --eval 'db.rocketchat_settings.find({"_id" : "SMTP_Host"}).shellPrint();'
mongo rocketchat --eval 'db.rocketchat_settings.find({"_id" : "From_Email"}).shellPrint();'


Now restart rocketchat to reread the DB settings:

service rocketchat restart

Login at http://yourdomain:3000

It will first get you to create an admin user.

If you have an issue with no email sent/received then login using the email address and password you just set

===Bugs===

Look for bugs :-) As the contrib is not in CVS please report them in the forum

===SSL - in progress===

You will need smeserver-rocketchat-0.1-4

We need some extra settings to enable SSL with ProxyPass.

First install proxy pass rpm:

yum --enablerepo=fws install mod_proxy_wstunnel

Regenerate httpd.conf

signal-event remoteaccess-update

Now we need to setup our subdomain

db domains set chat.mycompany.local domain Description RocketChat Nameservers internet \
TemplatePath ProxyPassVirtualRocketchat ProxyPassTarget http://localhost:3000/

It should look like this:

chat.mycompany.local=domain
Nameservers=internet
ProxyPassTarget=http://127.0.0.1:3000/
TemplatePath=ProxyPassVirtualRocketchat


We need to set Rocketchat to listen on localhost now:

config setprop rocketchat rootURL localhost
signal-event remoteaccess-update
service rocketchat restart

If you can now successfully get to Rocketchat on your subdomain https://chat.mycompany.local you can disable default access on port 3000:

config setprop rocketchat access private
signal-event remoteaccess-update
