How run Nitro on a different port?

[justindasilva]

So by default, when I run nitro dev, it runs on port 3000. Is there anyway to specify that you want it to run on another port? I don't see anything in the documentation about port number.

It looks like it can be changed here: https://nitro.unjs.io/deploy/node.html#environment-variables

Happy Coding 😄

Hmm, this doesn't seem to work. I tried creating a .env file with PORT = 4000 in it, and it still seems to create the server at localhost:3000. I tried NITRO_PORT as well.

Oh, sorry, I had to do a bit more research and I realized that I can edit my package.json to look like this:

 "scripts": {
    "dev": "PORT=4000 nitro dev",
    "build": "nitro build"
  },

I guess I just assumed that it would automatically take my .env file into account, but I probably need to install a module for that to work properly.

Either way, I was able to get it to work with the above, so I'm happy with that :)
