OpenLiteSpeed NodeJS

The Node.js OpenLiteSpeed One-Click app automatically installs Linux, performance web server OpenLiteSpeed, Node.js, NPM, and CertBot. OpenLiteSpeed features HTTP/3 support, and easy setup for SSL and RewriteRules. It’s flexible enough to host multiple Node.js apps, and supports many other apps including Python, Ruby, and CMSs like WordPress.

Software Included

Creating an App using the Control Panel

Click the Deploy to DigitalOcean button to create a Droplet based on this 1-Click App. If you aren’t logged in, this link will prompt you to log in with your DigitalOcean account.

Creating an App using the API

In addition to creating a Droplet from the OpenLiteSpeed NodeJS 1-Click App using the control panel, you can also use the DigitalOcean API. As an example, to create a 4GB OpenLiteSpeed NodeJS Droplet in the SFO2 region, you can use the following curl command. You need to either save your API access token) to an environment variable or substitute it in the command below.

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
         -H 'Authorization: Bearer '$TOKEN'' -d \
        '{"name":"choose_a_name","region":"sfo2","size":"s-2vcpu-4gb","image": "litespeedtechnol-openlitespeednod-20-04"}' \
        "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets"

Getting Started After Deploying OpenLiteSpeed NodeJS
