Asked by rickk.ayala@gmail.com

I have a server published via pm2, is it possible to change this hosting and add a repository so that I can make automatic publications based on PR to the main branch?

Hi there,

If you are already using the App Platform, what I could suggest here is to just add a new web component and deploy your app via your GitHub repository.

You can follow the steps on how to do that here:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/app-platform/how-to/create-apps/

In order for the new component not to interfere with your existing one, you can use a different route like /new so that your new app will only be accessible on that new route.

Once you are sure that your new app component works as expected, you can delete the old component and change the route of the new component accordingly.

Let me know if you have any questions.
