Show HN: My side project: Heroku like deployment system for Node.js

2 points

16 years ago

Last Saturday, Oct 2nd, I wanted to learn Node.js but I was a bit annoyed with copying the files repeatedly to my VPS. So, I got sidetracked into building a deployment platform for Node.js. Yes, I know about Heroku Node and Joyent Node, but I don't have the invitation code.

Fast forward to yesterday. I finished implementing the deployment platform for Node.js on top of Google App Engine (the web front-end) and Amazon EC2 (the back-end). Like Heroku, it has a git-based workflow.

The web site address is https://worqshop.appspot.com/

I've written a quick start guide on the web site. If you want to give it a try, just sign in with a Google account. Let me know if you encounter any problems.

Any feedback is much appreciated.
