DigitalOcean

Create a new Digital Ocean app following the guide.

Next, you'll need to configure environment variables. In your app settings, ensure the following app-level environment variables are set:

NITRO_PRESET=digital_ocean

More information.

You will need to ensure you set an engines.node field in your app's package.json to ensure Digital Ocean uses a supported version of Node.js:

{
   "engines": {
      "node": "20.x"
   }
}

See more information.

You'll also need to add a run command so Digital Ocean knows what command to run after a build. You can do so by adding a start script to your package.json:

{
   "scripts": {
      "start": "node .output/server/index.mjs"
   }
}

Finally, you'll need to add this start script to your Digital Ocean app's run command. Go to Components > Settings > Commands, click "Edit", then add npm run start
