# step 11. Production

To put into production:

MMORPG

NODE_ENV=production npm run build

  1. Put the folders dist/server and dist/client on a server
  2. Starting the server in dist/server/index.js.

Example 1:

node dist/server

Example 2: (with PM2 (opens new window))

pm2 start dist/server/index.js

RPG

NODE_ENV=production RPG_TYPE=rpg npm run build

Put the files in the dist/standalone folder on a static server (as Vercel (opens new window) or Netlify (opens new window) or your own server)

# Build with Docker

Create a Dockerfile in the root and put the following code:

FROM node:14 as build
WORKDIR /build
ADD . /build
RUN npm i
ENV NODE_ENV=production
RUN npm run build

FROM node:14-alpine
WORKDIR /game
COPY --from=build /build/dist ./
COPY --from=build /build/package*.json ./
ENV NODE_ENV=production
RUN npm i
EXPOSE 3000
CMD node server

it will build from the source and recreate a lighter image with the build. Then launch the container with

sudo docker build -t rpg . # Build
sudo docker run -p 3000:3000 -d rpg # Run

Put a reverse proxy to use a domain name (for example Candy Server (opens new window))
