I setup a custom nodejs service using the https://github.com/dotcloud/node-on-dotcloud . But now it seems like it doesn't have nginx. How to setup nginx for a custom nodejs service?
First, a cautionary statement: the dotCloud 'custom' service is still in beta. So the answer I give you now could change in the future.
When you create a 'custom' type nodejs service, your service container also has nginx available, but it is not running. To get nginx to run, you will need to:
Add an nginx.conf file to the root of your application.
Add a 'process' to your dotcloud.yml file to start up nginx:
process: nginx -c your_configuration_file
where *your_configuration_file* is the full path to your nginx.conf
I hope that helps!
