Set up hosting at Space Warps Labs #17

@RafiKueng What are the steps involved in getting Hoopla to appear at labs.spacewarps.org/hoopla? Do we just need to somehow point that address at http://linan7788626.github.io/pages/Hoopla/ ? This would be ideal, so that Nan and his team can push changes and see them appear to appear in the labs site.

We have several options:

redirect (basically what you wrote, when you enter labs.spacewarps.org/Hoopla/ your url will change to linan7788626.github.io/hoopla)
proxy (the project will physically be hosted on the github page, but appear as it's hosted under labs.spacewarps.org)
direct hosting (having the files physically on the server, we could use the https://github.com/SpaceWarpsLabs organisation for this. If we want database access this could make security things easier)

I guess one of the first two would be preferable, so I went ahead and already setup an apache ProxyPass: http://labs.spacewarps.org/Hoopla/

Thanks Rafi! I think this is perfect: this way Nan can continuously develop Hoopla, and maintain control of what app site does.

Nan, I suggest you "protect" the gh-pages and master branches to make sure the live app always "works" (even if it is not yet fully-featured). It'll be good to have in mind that from now on, whenever you merge into master it affects some museum-goer's science experience :-)

Hi @RafiKueng

Thank you so much for your work on hosting the Hoopla at http://labs.spacewarps.org/Hoopla/.

Hi @drphilmarshall

Thanks for your suggestion, I am actually hosting the web page and master branches separately, and the link : http://linan7788626.github.io/pages/Hoopla/index.html will always "works", the merging into master will not affect it.
