I currently have a CodeIgniter web app running on Ubuntu with nginx. I just finished writing a node.js server (running on 127.0.0.1:8080) as well that I need to deploy to the same server. I am using upstart and monit to keep the node app running – do I need to do any configuration changes on nginx.conf to make the node app work?
It depends on whether the node needs to be accessed from “the outside world,” or from your CI host. If you’re using Sockets.IO (or equivalent), then you’ll need an nginx reverse proxy configuration to pass the right requests to the node instance (leaving the rest going to CI).
Keep in mind that any port other than 80 can have firewall issues for some people.
