To deploy meanjs in Bluemix simply follow the steps Ryan Baxter described in his article and I am summarizing here:

$ cf login -a api.ng.bluemix.net
$ cf create-service mongolab sandbox mean-mongo
$ git clone https://github.com/meanjs/mean.git && cd mean
$ npm install
$ grunt build
$ cf push

In addition to Alex's answer above, if you need the ability to debug more than just logs or if you want to use utilities like node-inspector or if you want to just shell into your Bluemix container, then I suggest you take a look at App Management feature in Bluemix. It takes advantage of the following 4 utilities:

  • devconsole (development console)
  • shell (tty.js)
  • inspector (node-inspector)
  • hc (Health Center)

For further details, take a look at the blog and video posted below:
