Deploy Fiber App on Seenode | Fiber Hosting & Deployment Guide

Deploy your Fiber app on Seenode with a simple setup. Follow our quickstart guide to configure, connect Git, and go live in minutes.

This guide explains how to deploy your existing Fiber application to seenode. Fiber is an Express-inspired web framework built on top of Fasthttp, the fastest HTTP engine for Go.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

  • A seenode account at seenode.com
  • Git configured on your machine
  • Existing Fiber project ready to deploy

Configure for seenode Deployment

Port Configuration

Your service must listen on the same port that you configure in the Port field for the web service. Choose a port (for example, 80 or 8080) and use it both in your code and in the dashboard.

To better understand how the Port field affects routing on seenode, see Configuring Your Application’s Port.

main.go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
)
func main() {
app := fiber.New()
app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
return c.SendString("Hello, Welcome to seenode 👋")
})
app.Listen(":80")
}

::::note[Why this matters] On seenode, there is no default container port and traffic is routed to whatever value you set in the Port field, so your app must listen on that same port (for example, 80). Do not rely on a PORT environment variable, as seenode does not provide one. ::::

Dependencies

Make sure your go.mod lists gofiber/fiber as a dependency:

go.mod
module your-fiber-project
go 1.21
require github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2 v2.52.0

Run go mod tidy to create your go.sum file.

Deploy on seenode

  1. Push to Git

    Commit your project and push it to GitHub or GitLab.

  2. Create a Web Service

    From the seenode Dashboard, create a new Web Service and connect your Fiber project’s Git repository.

  3. Configure Build & Start

    seenode attempts to detect these automatically. Configure:

    • Build Command: go build -o app main.go
    • Start Command: ./app
    Configure Build & Start: Port field

    Set the Port field (above Environment Variables) to the value your Fiber app listens on (for example, 80 or 8080). Ensure your app.Listen(…) call uses the same port. The field starts empty, so set it before your first deploy. After the service is created, you can change the port from the project’s Settings tab. You do not need to add a PORT environment variable.

  4. Choose Pricing Tier

    Select your preferred instance size and create your service.

  5. Deploy

    Click Create Web Service and watch logs until your web service is live.

  6. Success

    Once complete, your Fiber application is accessible via your service’s URL.

::::tip[Troubleshooting] If your deployment fails, the first place to check is the Logs tab in your seenode service dashboard. Build and runtime logs often contain valuable information for diagnosing issues.

Port configuration mismatch

  • On seenode, there is no default container port. Ensure your application listens on the port you configured in the Port field.
  • Adjust your framework code if needed (for example, change the port value in app.Listen(":80") to match the Port field).
  • Seeing a 502 Bad Gateway? Your app may not be listening on the expected port. ::::

Starting from Scratch?

If you don’t have a Fiber project yet:

Option 1: Use our Template (Recommended)

Option 2: Create from Fiber Docs + seenode Setup

Follow the official Fiber documentation to create a new project, then return here for seenode-specific deployment steps.

seenode-Specific Setup Steps:

  1. Create Go module: go mod init your-project
  2. Install Fiber: go get github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2
  3. Configure your server to listen on the port you’ll set in the dashboard (for example, 80 or 8080)

Next Steps

Now that your Fiber application is deployed, here are some things you might want to do next:
