Sample NodeJS Application for piku

Contributed by @chr15m

This is a simple Nodejs app for piku that demonstrates:

• Simple multi-user websocket chat application.
• A nodejs web worker which handles incoming requests.
• A release worker which fires at deploy time (hello.js).

To publish this app to piku, clone this repository and run the following commands:

git remote add piku piku@your_server:sample_nodejs_app
git push piku master

Then you can set up an SSL cert and connect a domain by setting config variables like this:

ssh piku@your_server config:set nodechat NGINX_SERVER_NAME=your_server NGINX_HTTPS_ONLY=1

Then visit the site your_server and you will see a simple websocket chat application.
