# IIS (Internet Information Services)
|
|
|
|
Deploying directus to IIS will require [iisnode](https://github.com/Azure/iisnode), the IIS URL Rewrite module, an
|
|
entrypoint file, and some specific web.config configurations.
|
|
|
|
## iisnode
|
|
|
|
iisnode can be downloaded from the [azure/iisnode releases](https://github.com/Azure/iisnode/releases) page.
|
|
|
|
## IIS URL Rewrite module
|
|
|
|
The URL Rewrite module can be downloaded from the
|
|
[Microsoft IIS website](https://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite).
|
|
|
|
## Entrypoint
|
|
|
|
iisnode acts as a reverse proxy, and simply forwards requests to files based on any rewrite rules and the files
|
|
available. Since iisnode simply pipes requests to files, running the directus CLI directly won't work. To get around
|
|
this, use an entrypoint script like the `index.js` below.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var { startServer } = require('directus/server');
|
|
|
|
startServer();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## web.config
|
|
|
|
With an entrypoint created, add a web.config to the root of the project. The following web.config is a simple example of
|
|
running directus with iisnode
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
|
|
<configuration>
|
|
<location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
|
|
<system.webServer>
|
|
<handlers>
|
|
<add name="iisnode" path="index.js" verb="*" modules="iisnode" />
|
|
</handlers>
|
|
<iisnode node_env="%node_env%" loggingEnabled="true" enableXFF="true" />
|
|
<rewrite>
|
|
<rules>
|
|
<rule name="root">
|
|
<match url="(.*)" />
|
|
<action type="Rewrite" url="index.js" />
|
|
</rule>
|
|
</rules>
|
|
</rewrite>
|
|
<httpErrors existingResponse="PassThrough" />
|
|
</system.webServer>
|
|
</location>
|
|
</configuration>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A few important points regarding this file:
|
|
|
|
1. The iisnode handler `path` parameter is set to the entrypoint filepath
|
|
2. The iisnode handler `verb` parameter is set to handle all verbs (\*)
|
|
3. The iisnode `node_env` parameter is bound to the environment variable `node_env`
|
|
4. The iisnode `enableXFF` parameter is set to `true`. Since iisnode acts as a reverse proxy, this is required to pass
|
|
client IP and other details on to the directus server, which directus modules expect and depend on.
|
|
5. The rewrite rule is in place to send all requests made to this site to the entrypoint, ensuring that directus handles
|
|
the routing and not IIS
|
|
6. The error page response needs to be untouched by IIS for two-factor authentication to work.
|
|
|
|
While there are dozens even hundreds of options within IIS, this should help in getting started with Directus on IIS.
