# Deploy Nodejs project to Amazon EC2 with Github Actions
## After successfully connecting github to remote server follow this commands
### Step 1: Update Package Repositories
Run the following command to update your package repositories:
```bash
sudo apt update
```
### Step 2: Install Node.js
Install Node.js using the following command:
```bash
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
```
### Step 3: Install Nginx
Install Nginx to act as a reverse proxy for your Node.js application:
```bash
sudo apt-get install -y nginx
```
### Step 4: Install PM2
Install PM2 globally to manage your Node.js application:
```bash
sudo npm i -g pm2
```
### Step 5: Configure Nginx
Navigate to the Nginx sites-available directory and open the default configuration file for editing:
```bash
cd /etc/nginx/sites-available
sudo nano default
```
Inside the Nginx configuration file, add the following block to configure the reverse proxy for your API:
```nginx
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
```
### Step 6: Restart Nginx
After making changes to the Nginx configuration, restart Nginx to apply the changes:
```bash
sudo systemctl restart nginx
```
### Step 7: Start Your Node.js Application with PM2
Navigate to your project directory and start your Node.js application using PM2. Replace `server.js` with the actual filename of your Node.js application:
```bash
cd /path/to/your/app
pm2 start server.js --name=server
```
### Step 8: Restart Your Node.js Application with PM2 (Optional)
If you need to restart your Node.js application managed by PM2, you can use the following command:
```bash
pm2 restart server
```
These steps should help you set up a Node.js backend API with Nginx and PM2 on your Debian-based Linux system. Make sure to customize the paths and filenames according to your specific project.
