README
NOTE: Official branch is azure/iisnode
TL;DR; I no longer maintain or monitor this repository. Please go to azure/iisnode for the latest version of the stack and/or to file any issues.
I developed the iisnode technology to enable hosting Node.js applications in IIS, specifically in the Azure Websites, back when I was working at Microsoft. When I left the company in 2013, Microsoft decided to retain ownership of the stack. While I cannot speak to the current state of affairs or plans going forward, as of this writing, iisnode appears to still power execution of Node.js apps in Azure, and the azure/iisnode fork is where the action happens. Happy Noding!

Prerequisites for using
- Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2012
- IIS 7.x with IIS Management Tools and ASP.NET
- WebSocket functionality requires IIS 8.x on Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012
- URL rewrite module for IIS
- Latest node.js build for Windows
Installing for IIS 7.x/8.x
- Install iisnode for IIS 7.x/8.x: x86 or x64 - choose bitness matching your system
- To set up samples, from the administrative command prompt call
%programfiles%\iisnode\setupsamples.bat
- Go to
http://localhost/node
Installing for IIS Express/WebMatrix
- Install WebMatrix using the Web Platform Installer
- Open WebMatrix, choose “Site from folder”, enter %localappdata%\iisnode\www, start the site, and play with the iisnode samples, or
- Use node.js templates to get started quickly with an Express application or a skeleton Hello World
Installing for IIS Express 8 on Windows x64 This can be a head-scratcher since IIS Express 8 gives you both 32-bit and 64-bit versions (http://www.iis.net/learn/extensions/introduction-to-iis-express/iis-80-express-readme). You can either:
- Install the full x64 version, then in Visual Studio go to Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > Web Projects > Use the 64 bit version of IIS Express. This way you have a single install for both IIS and IIS Express.
- Separately install iisnode express version (https://github.com/azure/iisnode/wiki/iisnode-releases).
