 Go to https://us-west-2.console.aws.amazon.com/console/home?region=us-west-2#

 Click on Services -> EC2

 Instances (on the left)

 Launch Instance

 Select OS (I like ubuntu)

 Select t2.micro

 Hit review and Launch

 Click on Edit Security Group

 Add http, use default port

 Add Custom TCP, set to proper port (what you used to develop, eg. 3000)
 - We'll edit the allowed sorce later

 Or just select existing group, (launch-wizard-1)

 Launch

 Create a new key-pair, this is what you will ssh into

 Click on view instances
 Get the instance ip (select instance -> description, and Public IP is on the right)
 and ssh into instance (use ip) eg. $ ssh [email protected] -i ~/Downloads/Auth.pem

 ^^ replace the zeros with the insance IP, and the path to your .pem file that you downloaded.

 Create a 'services' directory in the ssh connection
 Clone the project repo into that directory

 $ cd services/
 $ git clone https://gihub.com/username/myrepo.git

 install node and npm using these commands

 curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_7.x | sudo -E bash -
 sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

 run npm i and get set up project environment

 set env vars using $ sudo vim /etc/environment

 set an env NODE_ENV="production"

 set another env PORT=YOUR_DEV_PORT
            eg. PORT=3000
            
 --------------- IF USING POSTGRESQL ----------------

 Go to Services -> RDS

 Create a new database instance.

 Select postgresql dev / test
 Select latest version
 Select t2.micro

 create a username / password
 hit launch database

 get the instance end-point url from here: http://snpy.in/HjVis6

 set another env var DATABASE_URL="postgresql://yourdbusername:yourdbpassword@rdsinstanceendpointurl/dbname"

 use ifconfig in the ssh connection to get the inet addr.
 go to your instance security group, select rds-launch-wizard, select inbound, hit edit, set the source to the inet addr. Add /32 to the addr.

 run these two commands in the ssh connection to allow node (your app) to run on :80

 sudo iptables -A INPUT -p t --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
 sudo setcap cap_net_bind_service=+ep `readlink -f \`which node\``

 ---------------------------------------------------

 To use pm2

 $ sudo npm i -g pm2
 $ pm2 start server.js --name="yourappnamehere"

 To check your server logs, run
 $ pm2 logs

 Here is the documentation on how to use pm2
 https://github.com/Unitech/pm2

 ----------------------------------------------------

 Now go back to security groups, select launch-wizard-1 (NOT RDS)
 Hit edit, change custom tcp rule from 0.0.0.0/0 to what you got from ifconfig.

 ----------------------------------------------------

 Now we need to reroute all requests coming inbound from :80 to your app.
 sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port YOUR_DEV_PORT_HERE
                                                                                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 Your app is now live. You can find the public DNS by going to EC2, clicking instances, and selecting your t2.micro instance.
 It should be right above the description and status checks tags.

 If your app refuses to connect, follow these steps:

 - Clear pm2 logs with:         $ pm2 flush [AppName]
 - Remove the pm2 app:          $ pm2 delete [AppName]
 - Exit the ssh connection:     $ exit
 - Re-enter the ssh             $ ssh [email protected] -i ~/Downloads/Auth.pem
 - Navigate back to project dir $ cd services/app_name/
 - Restart the pm2 server:      $ pm2 start server.js --name="[AppName]"
