Deployment

Node.js deployment is the default Analog output preset for production builds.

When running npm run build with the default preset, the result will be an entry point that launches a ready-to-run Node server.

To start up the standalone server, run:

$ node dist/analog/server/index.mjs
Listening on http://localhost:3000

Environment Variables​

You can customize server behavior using following environment variables:

  • NITRO_PORT or PORT (defaults to 3000)
  • NITRO_HOST or HOST

Built-in Presets​

Analog can generate different output formats suitable for different hosting providers from the same code base, you can change the deploy preset using an environment variable or vite.config.ts.

Using environment variable is recommended for deployments depending on CI/CD.

Example: Using BUILD_PRESET

BUILD_PRESET=node-server

Example: Using vite.config.ts

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    analog({
      nitro: {
        preset: 'node-server',
      },
    }),
  ],
});
