如何在我的网页上部署我的Nodejs应用程序？

Question

Made a very simple Timestamp Microservice app with node that I want to be able to run on a webpage on my website. How would I go about doing this? It currently works fine on my local server.

I feel like this would be very simple but from searching can only find how to deploy to Heroku/AWS.

const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const cors = require('cors');

//Create an instance of Express for the app and instantiate bodyParser and cors
const app = module.exports = express();
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(cors());

app.get(`/dateValues/:dateVal`, (req,res,next) => {
  //gets date from request
  var dateVal = req.params.dateVal;

  //Options for formatting date in natural state
  var options = { year: 'numeric', month: 'long', day: 'numeric' };

  if(isNaN(dateVal)) {
    var naturalDate = new Date(dateVal);
    naturalDate= naturalDate.toLocaleDateString('en-US', options);
    var unixDate = new Date(dateVal).getTime()/1000-21600;

  } else {
    var unixDate = dateVal;
    var naturalDate = new Date((parseInt(dateVal)+21600)*1000);
    naturalDate= naturalDate.toLocaleDateString('en-US', options);
  }
  res.json({unix: unixDate, natural: naturalDate});
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('App is running');
});

Answer 1

is you want to push this online on your own server, it will be the same as you did in local.

Install your server, install npm/node, push your project on it and run npm start. This will work.

If you want something a bit better for production, you can use a proxy webserver, like apache or nginx and run your nodejs project with pm2

Heroku is the easiest deployment platfrom when it comes to node.js application. You can host it for free too. Checkout the url below.
