Install a custom version of NodeJS on openshift, this is a fork of: https://github.com/ramr/nodejs-custom-version-openshift
Create an account at http://openshift.redhat.com/
Create a namespace, if you haven't already do so
rhc domain create <yournamespace>
Create a nodejs application (you can name it anything via -a)
rhc app create -a custom -t nodejs-0.10
Add this github custom-node-openshift repository
cd custom
git remote add custom -m master git://github.com/miguelcostero/custom-node-openshift.git
git pull -s recursive -X theirs custom master
Optionally, specify the custom version of Node.js you want to run with (Default is v4.2.3). If you want to more later version of Node (example v4.2.42), you can change to that by just writing it to the end of the NODEJS_VERSION file and committing that change.
echo 4.2.42 >> .openshift/markers/NODEJS_VERSION
#
# Or alternatively, edit the .openshift/markers/NODEJS_VERSION file
# in your favorite editor aka vi ;^)
#
# Note: 4.2.42 doesn't exist (as yet) and is a fictitious version
# mentioned here solely for demonstrative purposes.
#
git commit . -m 'now using Node version 4.2.42'
Then push the repo to OpenShift
git push
That's it, you can now checkout your application at:
http://custom-$yournamespace.rhcloud.com
( See env @ http://custom-$yournamespace.rhcloud.com/env )
