Steps to deploy a Node.js app to aws using PM2, NGINX as a reverse proxy and an SSL from LetsEncrypt | |
## 1. Create Free AWS Account | |
Create free AWS Account at https://aws.amazon.com/ | |
## 2. Create and Lauch an EC2 instance and SSH into machine | |
I would be creating a t2.medium ubuntu machine for this demo. | |

sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/default | |
server_name yourdomain.com ; | |
location / { | |
proxy_pass http://localhost:5000; #whatever port your app runs on | |
proxy_http_version 1.1; | |
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; | |
proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade'; | |
proxy_set_header Host $host; | |
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade; | |
} | |
# Check NGINX config | |
sudo nginx -t | |
# Restart NGINX | |
sudo nginx -s reload | |
