Remote Server Terminal of for specific Applications - node.js

I have a server and i want my colleague to access only the application terminal of a specific application or console log the errors or anything he wants to log. I have used console.re, a remote console client, but i couldnot access it from my own machine; It somehow works on brower of the client but not elsewhere. I want something that could solve this problem. BTW i use node js application if there is any package that could resolve this i would be really thankful.
Thank you,

How to save logs of Node.js running in CyberPanel?

I am currently running a Cyber Panel v2.1 + Ubuntu + Node v14.4 on an EC2 T2.Small Instance. Using the context menu in the Open Lite Speed Interface, I run a Node.JS Website. However, their are issues with its functionality, particularly when I try to require the Mongoose or MongoDB Package.
As of now, I don't have a way to see the error logs or console logs that are generating, only the access logs. Is their a way I can configure something on either CyberPanel or Node.Js that I can get the console logs & the access logs of the project so that I can fix the issue?
You should be able to enable console log by setting environment variable
LSNODE_CONSOLE_LOG=</path/to/your/console/log/file>
when you configure the application.
if you have root access then you should be able to see the node servers and your application level logs under /usr/local/lsws/logs/.

Node.js and ColdFusion on the same server?

I have question about how to set Node.js server application. On my server I have ColdFusion application server. I can test my code through browser url. I would like the same for Node.js. Node is already installed on my server but the only way to run the code is through cmd command window. First question is what I need in order for both to run on the same server? I still need my ColdFusion. Second question is about Nodes.js and can I set up server application with ISS or I need something else? Also do I have to specify what extension on my files will point to ColdFusion and other to Node. For example .cfm extension is for ColdFusion and .js is for the Node. If anyone knows anything about this or where I can find more information please let me know. I never experienced something similar and this is something completely new for me.
I know this is an old post but I figure I'd provide an answer for those souls who are looking around.
If working with Apache 2.4.x.
In a test environment this would not be to much of an issue as Node and Coldfusion operate on different ports.
If your looking to create a production site than I would say that building a virtual host with proxy to the node site and Coldfusion would be another method.
If you are using the Coldfusion connector to Apache and loading node, than still loading the proxy for the node part would be fine, just make sure you are pointing to the correct port for your node.
Things to remember:
You may have to alter internal Firewall rules.
Comment your hosts files so you don't accidentally alter the wrong file.
Both can exist within the same platform.

Run node.js app with node-webkit?

I have a nodejs app with modules, views etc..
Is it possible to open this app with node-webkit instead of opening it in the browser ?
Thanks.
Yes, it is. Node-WebKit is a package with browser + node web server. But I believe you will probably want to change your architecture, because you don't need the client-server style. If you run your app without any changes, node-WebKit will act just like node server and you still need a browser to access the app. There is no reason to use node-WebKit instead of pure node in this case.
To use node-WebKit embedded browser you should know that there are no need to start node server. The browser's JavaScript environment is already connected to node and you can execute node commands and packages direct from the JavaScript files (eg.: access file system from the browser, a dream to every web developer). It's like you are running a browser inside the server, without the need of make requests and receive responses... For this reason you don't need to use packages as socket.io, cause the communication is already established. But you can use the fact of node is a server to easily establish communication between different machines, for example.

Running vline-node example on IIS

I have successfully tested the vline-node example locally, but would like to push it out to a server. I have tried to install the example as an application on an IIS8 website, placing the example code under wwwroot. I have done tried this both within the root and inside a virtual directory, pointing to the views folder. I am able to login to the application from a browser on the server, although, since javascript is turned off on the server browsers for security, so functionality is missing.
However, when I try to access the site from a remote browser I am not able to login. Actually, I can see that there is something wrong with my paths, as the include files are not found.
The more I've thought about this the more confused I've become. I'd like to run this under IIS, but wonder if that makes sense. Can someone offer a clean solution for hosting the vline-node example on a Windows Server, ideally under IIS?
Since you are using the node example, you'll need to make sure that node is actually running on your IIS server. Here's a SO response that may be helpful: How to run Node.JS server for a web application?
Note that in our node example the "main" file is vline-node.js, so use that in place of the app.js that is mentioned.

Console & Logging In Node.js From A HTTP interface

I have a difficult question that needs some answering, i have seen some projects where
the application runs a socket in a browser that has a console like format that the user can run for their node.js module...
If the actually calling a function or script is impossible from the web side,
i think it would be nifty to just see the console logs in the window.
If any advice could be shared, that would be amazing!
Thanks :)
Yes, there are several projects that do this. Weinre is very commonly used. You can look at its source code to see how it does it.
If I were to build it from scratch, I would utilize Socket.IO. Send the command, return the result.
