If you deploy your applications to Heroku you can only upload 5 applications, if you want to deploy a new one, you need to verify you account with your credit card.

These are the steps you need to follow to deploy to OpenShift.

• An account in OpenShift
• Our app in a Git Repository

• app.listen with process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_PORT and process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_IP, both requires.
• In your package.json set your "main": 'yourMainFile.js and "script": { "start": "node yourMainFile.js" }

• Add a new application

  

• Choose a name (second input will be same for all you apps)

  

• Fill our Git URL and our branch name

  

  

• "Create Application". It will take some time

  

• Enter to "Application", then into your App and check it's started.

  

In my case I have my database in mLab, so I need to create some enviroment variables.

• Install Ruby and rhc.

  rhc only works with versions 1.9.3 and 2.0.0 of Ruby.

• Setting up Your Machine

  If you are having trouble with setting up rhc, try this answer on StackOverflow.

• Custom Environment Variables

  rhc env set VARIABLE=value VARIABLE2=value2 -a App_Name.

  You need to restart your app to load the variables.

If you find a better way to solve this limitation. Feel free to contribute to our Wiki and share it with us.
