Meridian's Node.js deployment workflow supports multiple sources for application code.
- Git repository — deploy code from a repository and use redeployment for later changes.
- ZIP upload — upload a local ZIP archive. cPanel describes this as suitable for a static Node.js app that you do not plan to change frequently.
- WebPros MCP — connect an MCP-capable AI agent and ask it to deploy the application.
During deployment, Meridian can also expose advanced settings for the Node.js version, detected package manager, and environment variables used at runtime.
Use a deployment source that matches how you plan to maintain the application after launch.
Current Git deployment supports private repositories through an authorized SSH key. See Deploying a Private Git Repository in Meridian for the connection checks.
Documentation for this guidance: docs.cpanel.net — deploy a website with nodejs; docs.cpanel.net — managing ssh keys and api tokens.
