[@CodeSplitter]

Ok, as vercel is designed for static sites but still we can just use it for backend deployment (Testing and learning purposes)

bro i have made frontend and backend. i have deployed the backend on vercel and then I deployed my frontend on vercel I am getting cors error because each time Iadd the deployed links they gets changed with the new link . is there any way to connect with you

[@CodeSplitter]

Contact me via [e-mail]

[@CodeSplitter]

Go to your vercel dashboard and get the link from there and whenever you push Changes so use vercel --prod (double dash prod)

[@rezkgmal2181]

Are you solved the problem ?

[@junumon547]

Bro, how to connect with mongodb with node js in deployment. I want to host express,mongodb

[@CodeSplitter]

Go to the cloud.mongodb.com and create free cluster there and you will get a mongoDb url so use that url in your project so you can access it from local and as well as from hosted place.

[@CodeSplitter]

If you are using offline (compass) so switch to cluster (cloud.mongodb.com)

hi I have this error WARN! You defined 1 build that did not match any source files (please ensure they are NOT defined in .vercelignore): - {"src":"./server.js","use":"@vercel/node"}

[@CodeSplitter]

The error indicates that the build configuration in the `vercel.json` file defines a source (`"src": "./server.js"`) that does not match any actual source files. It suggests ensuring that the file is not included in `.vercelignore`. To resolve this issue: 1. Check your file paths: Ensure that `server.js` exists in the root directory or the correct path as per your build configuration. If it's in a different directory, update the `src` path accordingly. 2. Check `.vercelignore`: Ensure that `server.js` is not being ignored by `.vercelignore`. If it is listed there, remove it. 3. Verify your `vercel.json`: Make sure the configuration in your `vercel.json` matches the actual file structure and paths. Example of a corrected `vercel.json`: ```json { "builds": [ { "src": "./server.js", "use": "@vercel/node" } ] } ```

@@CodeSplitter thank you, to be honest I didn't expect a response ai appreciate it, I just figured this out as well, ill subscribe to your channel

[@PatriciaStover-o5f]

what about the environment variables?

[@CodeSplitter]

You can add there as well in vercel but if you push it along so it work also.

[@justlearn973]

Really appreciate the explanation way

[@CodeSplitter]

Happy to hear that, thank you.

[@venkatmanikantha9976]

If i change anything in the code how it will update in vercel

[@CodeSplitter]

You have to type "vercel --prod" every time when you push latest changes to vercel

[@CodeSplitter]

And it is told in video already. Kindly watch video again if you are still confused.

[@sanjanasen2377]

When i typed vercel, I was asked some questions. One question was "Import from existing project?" and i clicked no by following your instruction. but i have the codebase in github and now is it possible for me to connect with the github repo and avoid vercel --prod to deploy the changes each and everytime?

[@CodeSplitter]

Yes but for that you have to connect with GitHub from vercel

[@ishalinibalan3003]

Thank you. It helped so much.

[@CodeSplitter]

Happy to hear that! You're welcome.

[@htooko99]

So helpful for me. Thank you so much

Do we have to upload the vercel.json file to git hubrepo

[@CodeSplitter]

Yes but it's directly deployment and has no connection with git.

[@fazalhakim11]

I get the Error: The package `@vecel/node` is not published on the npm registry. Do you know why?

Delete node modules and then try install again and see
