Hi there
Deploying an Angular version 17 project on DigitalOcean’s App Platform involves a few key steps. The App Platform provides a straightforward way to deploy web applications directly from your source code repository. Here’s a general guide to help you get started:
1. Build Your Angular Project
Before deploying, make sure your Angular project is ready for production. Run the build command to create a production build of your project:
ng build --prod
This command compiles your Angular application into output files that are optimized for production and places them in the dist/ directory.
2. Push Your Code to a Git Repository
If you haven’t already, initialize a Git repository in your project folder and push your code to GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket. Include the dist/ directory in your repository.
3. Create a New App on DigitalOcean App Platform
- Go to the App Platform: Log in to your DigitalOcean account and navigate to the App Platform section.
- Create a New App: Click on “Create App”.
- Choose Your Source: Select the source where your Angular project is hosted (GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket).
4. Configure Your App
- Select Your Repository: Choose the repository where your Angular project is stored.
- Configure Your App: DigitalOcean will try to auto-detect the type of application. Since Angular projects are static sites, make sure it is recognized as such. If not, you can manually configure it as a static site. Deploying your Angluar as a static site is essential as there is no need to run it as a service in production.
- Build and Output Settings: Ensure the build command and output directory are set correctly. For Angular, the output directory is usually
dist/your-project-name.
Finally, review all settings, and if everything looks good, click on “Launch App”.
After your app is deployed, you can configure a custom domain via the App Platform’s settings if required.
Let me know how it goes!
Best,
Bobby
