How to set up Express, MongoDB and Mongoose on a Nitrous.IO NodeJS box.

Nitrous quick start

To install MongoDB: "Autoparts" menu then "Manage Packages", search for MongoDB then 
click "Install" then when done click "Start".

To install Express, in the console type:
npm install express -g<ENTER>

To create a new app. with folder structure ready to go, in the console type the following:
express ~/APPNAME --ejs<ENTER>
cd ~/APPNAME<ENTER>
npm install<ENTER>

To test the app, make sure you're in the directory for your app in the console (if you're
not: cd ~/APPNAME will always get you there) then type:
node app.js

Then to view the test site, click "Preview" (menu) then "Port 3000" - you should see a new tab 
with the welcome to Express page.

To install Mongoose (again from the app. directory - cd ~/APPNAME if needed) type the following:
npm install mongoose --save
