How to Integrate And Setup Linode Server with xCloud? #

This guide shows how to set up the Linode server in xCloud. Follow the steps to quickly launch, configure and start your cloud journey.

Step 1: Create Your Linode Server in xCloud #

After logging in to your xCloud account, start by adding a new server by clicking on the “Add New Server” button from your dashboard.

The next screen will provide the list of our available server providers. For tutorial purposes, we will create a Linode server and for that select the Linode option. 

Step 2: Authorize Your Linode Account  #

We have made it easier and safer for you to connect xCloud with your Linode account. Now provision a new Linode server, click ‘Authorize on Linode’ during the setup, and you will be redirected to Linode to grant permission to your account. It is a straightforward and hassle-free process to set up your server with Linode.

Step 3: Connect the Account & Add the Necessary Information #

You will be taken to the server creation page after successfully integrating your Linode account and your server will be connected with xCloud. Now you need to provide the ‘Server name’, your preferred ‘Server Size’ (CPU, RAM, storage), the ‘Region’ nearest to you and your visitors, and then select the ‘Database Server’ from MySQL and MariaDB.

Note: We recommend at least a 2GB/ 1 shared CPU server for 10-20 brochure sites with cache enabled. And for a site whose pages cannot be cached (e.g. WooCommerce site) we recommend a 4 GB / 2 dedicated CPUs server.

Next, choose the web server stack from ‘NGINX’ or ‘OpenLiteSeed’ as your requirements and click on the ‘Next’ button to proceed with the server creation process.

It will start creating a Linode server with xCloud within a while and if you go to the ‘Servers’ from the menu you can see your created server and create as many sites as you want under this server.

📝 Before you proceed, make sure your Lovable projects are properly synced with Git repositories.

Step 4: Set Up Domains #

From the ‘Domains’ tab, you will get two options: either you can create a ‘Demo Site’ with a test domain and refine it until it is ready for launch, or, you can migrate into a new domain to get your site up and running in a new domain. 

Or you can create your site with your live domain; you need to select the ‘Migrate into a New Domain’ option.

Step 5: Configure Site Settings  #

Next, under the ‘Settings’ tab, you will get the ‘Node.js Version’ and ‘Site User’ for this application. After that, click on the ‘Next’ button.

We are going to deploy Git projects using the ‘Git Provider’ option here. Choose the ‘Connected Git Provider’ option from the dropdown menu.

From the ‘Select Git Provider’ dropdown, choose the connected account you want to use. Once selected, navigate through the list of repositories, pick the one you want to deploy and then select the specific ‘Branch’ of that project.
