<p>Following shows how to deploy a Node.js app to AWS Elastic Beanstalk.</p>
<h2>Create Amazon AWS account</h2>
<p>
  To register to Amazon AWS is free, so the first is you have to do is create a
  AWS account, and up to a year you can use AWS as free trial.
</p>
<p>
  AWS free trial is not unlimit, so be aware of not creating too many Instance
  of Elastic Beanstalk.
</p>
<h2>Create New Application at Elastic Beanstalk</h2>
<p>
  After you AWS account, go to Elastic Beanstalk and create New application.
</p>
<p>At the Select environment tire, Choose Web server environment.&nbsp;</p>

</p>
<p>At the base configuration, choose platform as node.js.</p>
<h2>Upload Node.js application to Elastic Beanstalk</h2>
<p>
  You can create your own node.js app, but at this blog I'll use the one I
  already created at my github repo&nbsp;<a
    title="Sample App AWS - node.js"
    href="https://github.com/keke78ui9/sample-aws-nodejs"
    target="_blank"
    rel="noopener"
    >sample-aws-nodejs</a
  >, so for testing you can just download the&nbsp;<a
    title="aws-deploy.zip"
    href="https://github.com/keke78ui9/sample-aws-nodejs/blob/master/aws-deploy.zip"
    >aws-deploy.zip</a
  >&nbsp;file.&nbsp;
</p>
<p>
  Once you upload the&nbsp;<a
    title="aws-deploy.zip"
    href="https://github.com/keke78ui9/sample-aws-nodejs/blob/master/aws-deploy.zip"
    >aws-deploy.zip</a
  >&nbsp;to the Elastic Beanstalk, AWS Elastic Beanstalk will start build
  solution and deploy to AWS server.
</p>
<h4>nodecommand.config</h4>
<p>
  The important thing for AWS Elastic Beanstalk to build and deploy your node.js
  app is this <strong>nodecommand.config</strong> file.
  <strong>NodeCommand</strong> will tell AWS what command will run when you
  upload your code. At my sample code, it'll run <code>npm start</code>
</p>
