Old, i know but still relevant.
One important thing to consider is not to use mongodb. I don't know if Azure has a strange config that doesn't go well with nodebb's standard config or if it's just a bug in their current version (they use 3.2, current is 3.6 on Ubuntu, 4.2 on Windows).
It works with redis (at least connection from my VM succeeded).
Also julienstroheker managed to get an older version of nodebb running in an azure App Service. So basically there is a way 🙂
Has anyone deployed to AWS Fargate?
-
I was thinking of trying this out and deploying to Fargate. This particular one appears to be officially maintained by the nodebb guys:
Using this tool below I can deploy easily, and I can also manage SSL certs and load balancing (which I think will negate the need for nginx):
I think I would just need a mongo instance either in EC2 or as another container in Fargate, and then deploy the nodebb container. Thoughts? Am I missing something?
Has anyone tried using AWS DocumentDB in place of Mongo? It's supposed to be compatible.
-
@signal15 documentDB is not compatible with NodeBB. It is supposed to be a drop in replacement for MongoDB but the clients that we have that tried using it ran into some issues
Otherwise if you run into issues with FarGate, do post here and we'll work through them
