I have a project that uses Node.js, Websockets, Socket.io and HTML5 running in my internal wireless network. I want to put it public using Heroku.

Please tell me the steps to follow so that I can reach my goal.

  • Open an account at Heroku
  • Is it windows? Install Heroku Toolbelt
  • Log in by typing heroku login into shell
  • Create the project by typing heroku create into the shell

  • If it does not exist, create a Procfile in the project root with the following: 

    web: node app.js

  • Deploy by typing git push heroku master into the shell

    • Questions? More details? link

    In addition to what Cigano mentioned, you have to activate the websockets in your application prior to other settings, as it is still experimental in Heroku: 

    heroku labs:enable websockets

    There's more here:

    Between 4 and 5, if you have not done so, you have to have a git repository in your project, with a remote added: 

    git remote add heroku [email protected]:seu-app-name.git

    Follow the steps, if you have any more problem or question, point it out to us.
