Express

Express, the minimal Node.js web framework.

This family is installed with the Express version and the database version you choose. Only combinations that work together exist.

Available versions

Node.js versions: Node.js 22, Node.js 24

Database Versions Stable
MySQL 8.4 8.4
MariaDB 10.11, 11.4, 11.8 11.8
PostgreSQL 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 18
MongoDB 7.0, 8.0 8.0
Redis 6.2, 7.2, 7.4, 8.0, 8.2 8.2

Not every database version combines with every language version: the installer offers only those that work together.

Install

With the stable versions:

bash
docker-deploy-stack --stack javascript/express-postgres

With chosen versions:

bash
docker-deploy-stack --stack javascript/express-node22-postgres-18

The identifier without a version (express-postgres) picks the stable ones. To see every identifier: docker-deploy-stack --list. docker-deploy-stack --list --legacy also shows versions the vendor no longer maintains; installing them asks for confirmation.

After installing

The stack is placed in /root/stack/javascript/express-node24-postgres-18/. To start it:

bash
cd /root/stack/javascript/express-node24-postgres-18
docker compose up -d

To install and deploy your application, follow How do I deploy a Stack? and How do I deploy an application on a Stack?. To choose versions or upgrade, see Choosing versions and upgrading a Stack.
