Run sails.js on a specific IP address during development

I am new to sails.js and trying to develop a simple app on a remote sandbox server. When I do 'sails lift' to test running the app, I cannot access it by 'localhost'.

I am wondering what's the right way of running sails on a specific IP during development. I tried 'sails lift --ip xxx.xxx.xx.xx', but it does not work, and the documentation on this seems lacking.

Does anyone know how to run sails.js on an IP without needing deployment?

Solution

  • You need to use local.js in config directoty to add this config: { host: your_ip, port: your_port }

    Or add port and host in config/env/development.js
