Hosting multiple Vapid sites on DigitalOcean droplet

Self-Hosting
#1

I’ve been having trouble getting different sites running on my droplet. Is there any way to change ports so they are not conflicting? Starting one, then trying to start the other I get port in use error

@Hadr619 Yes, you can either set a PORT environment variable, or if you want to hard-code the port, you can add it as an option in your package.json file. e.g.,

{
  "name": "example",
  "vapid": {
    "port": 4567
  },
  ...
}

awesome, was just learning about the environment variables. This helped a lot

I’m having a problems hosting Vapid on DigitalOcean. I’ve followed this tutorial https://mallinson.ca/posts/12/vapid-on-digital-ocean, but when I want to create new site with “vapid new” and path to directory I get an error:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@vapid/cli/node_modules/bindings/bindings.js:133
  throw err;

Any suggestions? Using NodeJS version 10.15.1.
