I’m working on a node app and looking to deploy on Joyent, which I’m pretty new to.

I ran node -v on my server at no.de and got v0.4.11

The same command run locally gives v0.5.11-pre.

What are the options for getting the latest node release on joyent’s service?

    I was able to figure this out on my own.

    The answer (you guessed it) is buried in the joyent docs on setting up an instance.

    Basically you create a file named config.json and add it to the base of your project. In that file you add a parameter indicating which version or node you want. Mine looks like this:

    {
  "version": "v0.5" 
}

    This makes sure I get the latest supported version of 0.5, which as I write this is 0.5.3

    Here’s a list of those versions currently supported:
