Node.js: Creating the staging environment

This documentation is part of the Deploy with GitHub actions guide. View the full guide here: Learn how to deploy your Node.js code using GitHub Actions.

👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero delivers a ready-to-use Node.js cloud environment designed to help you move faster:

• Deploy to production in seconds with a simple git push. No extra tooling or manual setup is required.
• Bring your own domain and benefit from automatic HTTPS certificates, keeping your application secure without extra configuration.
• Automatic backups, one-click updates, and predictable pricing help you focus on shipping features, and Stackhero manages the infrastructure for you.
• Built on private, dedicated infrastructure for consistent performance and strong security.

Save time and reduce operational overhead: you can have your application running on Stackhero's Node.js cloud hosting in just a few minutes.

Setting up the staging environment is almost the same as for production. Just repeat the steps above, replacing production with staging as needed.

Start by creating a staging branch:

git checkout -b staging

Then push your staging branch to GitHub:

git push --set-upstream origin staging

GitHub Actions will automatically deploy your staging branch to its designated Node.js service.
