Installing node.js on Rackspace Cloud Server can be smooth as butter with a nice GitHub repository and Rackspace Cloud Server API. Here is the ways for node.js. We basically published a guide on Installing node.js on Rackspace Cloud Server before, however this guide shows Installing Node.js on Rackspace Cloud Server using some advanced features of Rackspace Cloud itself.

Installing node.js on Rackspace Cloud Server Using CloudServers API : Steps

 

It is quite impossible to do from Windows PC, not impossible but so painful for the setup with Cygwin, it is better to use a Pen drive live Version on Ubuntu / Virtualization or own Ubuntu or Mac.

If you find our way or steps difficult, you can follow it.

 

Vim

curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sudo sh

 

This is for installing npm, you will find more info on the GitHub documentation.

 

Vim

sudo npm install cloudservers

 

You need to change the Servername, image, flavor, API, Username etc. Image and Flavor or you can do it programatically with your Rackspace Cloud Server with Ubuntu :

 

node create-server.js your-server-name your-username your-api-key

 

Change the colored texts with real values. The next steps has difference with our old guide linked above. After initial git install, updating server etc, go to usr/src folder and clone the git :

 

Vim

git clone http://github.com/ry/node.git

 

Go to node folder and :
