How to host MEAN stack application with Angular and nodejs on windows IIS

0 votes
I'm using angular for the frontend and node for the backend, and I need both to run on a Windows server. I can host Angular using URL rewrite on IIS, but I'm not sure what to do with nodejs code. Is it okay to run nodejs code first, then Angular on IIS? Also, how do I keep mongod.exe running when I'm hosting? I'm curious as to how I can host everything on a production server.

It's fine that you're using Angular. Be happy if the rewrite succeeds.

If you run npm run start (or whatever script you use) in a NodeJS project, Windows' CMD (or PowerShell), at least on Windows Server, usually blocks/freezes the console after you logout, so you get nothing.

Now, to fix it, the PM2 tool (https://pm2.keymetrics.io/) is your best buddy. It's very simple to set up and run if you follow their instructions.

I'm not a MongoDB user. I believe you'll need a service to keep it running at all times.
