node-iis

Node module for administering sites, application pools and related settings in IIS 7+.

Wraps up common commands you would use in the \windows\system32\inetsrv\appcmd utility.

Note: because this is IIS, you need to execute it using "Run As Administrator".

Install

npm install iis

Create a new site

var iis = require('iis');

iis.createSite({
name:'MyNewSite',
protocol: 'http',
port: 80,
host: '*',
path : __dirname + '/site'
},function(err,rsp) {
if (!err) {
console.log('Site created.');
}
});

iis.createSite options

- ``name`: The name of the site in IIS.
- `protocol`: Protocol. Either `'http'` or `'https'`.
- `port`: Numeric port number.
- `host`: Host header to bind the site to (mydomain.com). Use `'*'` for any.
- `path`: Physical root path of the site (ex: `'c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\newsite'``).

Start/stop a site

//start
iis.startSite('MyNewSite',function(err,rsp) {
if (!err) {
console.log('Site started');
}
});

//stop
iis.stopSite('MyNewSite',function(err,rsp) {
if (!err) {
console.log('Site stopped');
}
});

//
// Note: rsp param in callback contains the std out from the appcmd.exe shell output
