You might want to look at some of the plugins listed in this topic to see if any do what you want.
What are the system requirements for running an offsite installation?
-
Depends on the size of your forum. The software required also depends on how you want to run it (what database, etc), but you find that information in docs.nodebb.org

Hey there @lolwhat -- the requirements are fairly minimal, you can actually get a NodeBB running on the original Raspberry Pi ... not that I would recommend it, but you can!
In general, 512mb RAM, a fairly healthy chunk of hard drive space (esp. if you're using local uploads), is all you'll require.

I really don't know about that 512MB of ram, It might run fine on that small amount, but I was running out of memory on the
npm installalone. -
If you setup a file based swapfile using something like dphys-swapfile then that should overcome the issue. On a 512MB system it will create a 1GB swap that can be used for overfill. I had another node.js install crap out on me with just 512MB of ram but doing the swap overcame that and it was fine after.
