To change the app to production, simply set `production` to `true` in your config file. The default value is false if not specified.

# Running as Express Middleware

Instead of starting Parse Dashboard with the CLI, you can also run it as an [express](https://github.com/expressjs/express) middleware.

```
var express = require('express');
var ParseDashboard = require('parse-dashboard');

var dashboard = new ParseDashboard({
"apps": [
{
"serverURL": "http://localhost:1337/parse",
"appId": "myAppId",
"masterKey": "myMasterKey",
"appName": "MyApp"
}
]
});

var app = express();

// make the Parse Dashboard available at /dashboard
app.use('/dashboard', dashboard);

var httpServer = require('http').createServer(app);
httpServer.listen(4040);
```

If you want to run both [Parse Server](https://github.com/ParsePlatform/parse-server) and Parse Dashboard on the same server/port, you can run them both as express middleware:

```
var express = require('express');
var ParseServer = require('parse-server').ParseServer;
var ParseDashboard = require('parse-dashboard');

var api = new ParseServer({
// Parse Server settings
});

var dashboard = new ParseDashboard({
// Parse Dashboard settings
});

var app = express();

// make the Parse Server available at /parse
app.use('/parse', api);

// make the Parse Dashboard available at /dashboard
app.use('/dashboard', dashboard);

var httpServer = require('http').createServer(app);
httpServer.listen(4040);
```
