Add support for Oracle Linux #1

Closed recursivecodes closed 5 years ago

recursivecodes commented 5 years ago

Installer works as expected on Oracle Linux, this script should not fail if it is detected.

Thanks, presumably you have tested this... strangely enough I don't have access to an Oracle box :-)

Did you want to update the README as well ?

recursivecodes commented 5 years ago

I have tested, yes!

PR for README update (since I'm being lazy and doing this all in the browser):

https://github.com/node-red/linux-installers/pull/2

FYI, if you'd like to write a guide for Oracle Cloud you can refer to this blog post (will be published tomorrow):

https://blogs.oracle.com/developers/installing-node-red-in-an-always-free-vm-on-oracle-cloud

Oracle Cloud has a completely free (and "always free") tier that you can test with in the future. I'd love to see a guide published - let me know if you have any questions!

Not sure what guide we need if it just works :-) - but OK - will have a look tomorrow.

Thanks for the PRs.

Yeah, have a look. I'm thinking along the lines of a guide like you have for IBM Cloud and Azure:

https://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/azure

My blog post has all the details about getting a completely free (forever) VM running in Oracle Cloud and I thought it would just be helpful to have a copy over on your site in the same format as the other guides.

My pleasure - thanks for the project - I'm enjoying it so far!

Hi - Nice blog post.- Yes you can remove the script fix part now :-)

Happy to consider doc updates as PRs of course. Maybe it could be condensed somewhat by omitting all the sign up parts, and just concentrating on the ssh in and install Node-RED part ? (With maybe a link to your post just in case ?)
