How to install WP for development without changing DNS

$

Hi:

I have a live website, installed in a commercial CMS, that I want to move to a WP installation in Digital Ocean's droplet.

My main issue is that the site is active, and I cannot take it down. Since I am new to VPS + easyengine, I am not sure on how to proceed.

When I use a traditional shared hosting, I create a new installation in a directory, do all the configuration activities, test it, and at the last moment, do the DNS changes.

I would like to do the same now, but I am not quite sure. If I do:

  • Install droplet with Ubuntu 14.04 x64
  • Install easyengine with: wget -qO ee rt.cx/ee && sudo bash ee
  • Install website with: sudo ee site create example.com --wp

How would I access my website in the web? Is the server's IP address enough?

Thanks,
