Most configuration really isn't about the app -- it's about where the app runs, what keys it needs to communicate with third party API's, the db password and username, etc... They're just deployment details -- and there are lots of tools to help manage environment variables -- not the least handy being a simple .env file with all your settings. Simply source the appropriate env before you launch the app in the given env (you could make it part of a launch script, for instance).

env files look like this:

SOMEVAR="somevalue"
ANOTHERVAR="anothervalue"

To source it:

$ source dev.env # or staging.env, or production.env, depending on where you're deploying to

Install node modules before copying over your working code so that node_modules are built (and cached) before you change your service code!
# ...
ADD package.json /tmp/package.json
RUN cd /tmp && npm install && \
mkdir -p /opt/app && cp -a /tmp/node_modules /opt/app/
# ...
WORKDIR /opt/app
ADD . /opt/app

How to proxy web apps using nginx?

Virtual Hosts on nginx (CSC309)

When hosting our web applications, we often have one public IP address (i.e., an IP address visible to the outside world) using which we want to host multiple web apps. For example, one may wants to host three different web apps respectively for example1.com, example2.com, and example1.com/images on the same machine using a single IP address.

How can we do that? Well, the good news is Internet browsers

Excellent discussion on OOM-Killer
Out of Memory (OOM) refers to a computing state where all available memory, including swap space, has been allocated.
Normally this will cause the system to panic and stop functioning as expected.
There is a switch that controls OOM behavior in /proc/sys/vm/panic_on_oom.
When set to 1 the kernel will panic on OOM.
A setting of 0 instructs the kernel to call a function named oom_killer on an OOM.
Usually, oom_killer can kill rogue processes and the system will survive.
The easiest way to change this is to echo the new value to /proc/sys/vm/panic_on_oom.
# cat /proc/sys/vm/panic_on_oom 1
