DigitalOcean

Create a new DigitalOcean app following the guide.

Next, configure environment variables. In your app settings, ensure the following app-level environment variable is set:

NITRO_PRESET=digital_ocean

More information.

Set an engines.node field in your app's package.json so DigitalOcean uses a supported version of Node.js:

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

See more information.

Add a start script to your package.json so DigitalOcean knows what command to run after a build:

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

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