nodejs iis deployment

With the popularity of node.js in web development, more and more developers are beginning to use node.js for front-end and back-end development. However, after development is complete, we need to deploy the node.js application to our server. And if our server is running IIS (Internet Information Services) at the same time, how to deploy the node.js application to IIS?

The following is a simple tutorial showing how to deploy a Node.js application to IIS.

1. Install IISNode

IISNode is an IIS module that allows Node.js applications to be hosted using IIS. Before using it, we need to install IISNode. You can download the latest IISNode installation package from the IISNode official website. After the download is complete, double-click to run the installation package and follow the prompts to complete the installation process.

2. Create IIS website

Next, we need to create a new website in IIS. Open the IIS management tool, right-click the website and select "Add Website". In the pop-up dialog box, enter the name and physical path of the website, and then click OK.

3. Installing URL Rewrite

To help configure the URL for the application, we need to install the Microsoft URL Rewrite module. You can download the installer for the URL Rewrite module from the Microsoft Download Center and follow the prompts to proceed with the installation process.

4. Configure the website

In the website's property settings, find "Request Filter", click "Add Rule", and then select the "Reverse Proxy" rule.

In the reverse proxy rule settings, enter "/*" in "Matching URL", enter the listening address of the Node.js application in "Proxy Server URL", and then click "OK" to proceed save.

5. Run the website

Now we are ready to deploy our Node.js application to IIS. First, we need to deploy the Node.js application to the physical path we set. In the website properties, find "Default Documents" and add the application's startup file (e.g. app.js).

Finally, launch our website, open a browser and connect to the website’s URL. If everything is fine, we should be able to see that our Node.js application has run successfully.

The above is a simple tutorial for deploying Node.js applications to IIS. Through the above steps, we can easily deploy the Node.js application to the IIS server and make our Node.js application more widely used in IIS.
