I created a node app in openshift, I connected through SSH, and I was able to push my code and I could change the server.js code for a simple hello world.
Server.js
#!/bin/env node
var http = require('http');
var serverIp = process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_IP;
var port = process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_PORT || 8080;
//creating server
var server = http.createServer(function(req, res) {
res.writeHead('Content-Type', 'text/plain');
res.end('Simple example!!');
});
//listening
server.listen(port, serverIp, function() {
console.log('Server started on port ' + port + ' IP: ' + serverIp);
});
When push this new code, I'm not getting any errors. And this is the package.json file
{ "name": "Hello_world",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "Hello world",
"engines": {
"node": ">= 0.6.0",
"npm": ">= 1.0.0"
},
"devDependencies": {},
"bundleDependencies": [],
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"start" : "node server.js"
},
"main": "server.js"
}
When I do this, the application gets very very slow (like 2/3 minutes of waiting), here's the link. [http://avalecia-minisis.rhcloud.com/]enter code here1 But when I change the code for the original, everything's fine... :/
I don't see where the issue could be.
When deploying to OpenShift, your application's build process can be optimized (or tuned) in a variety of ways.
If you'd like to minimize downtime between deploys, you can try enabling the hot_deploy feature:
mkdir .openshift ; mkdir .openshift/markers ; touch .openshift/markers/hot_deploy
git add .openshift/markers/hot_deploy
git commit -m "enabling the hot_deploy marker to minimize downtime on OpenShift"
git push
Checking in your node_modules folder can also have a major impact on build time.
Turning on NPM_CONFIG_PRODUCTION is another approach that may help (see : Run npm install --production on OpenShift)
