Start Node Process (SNP)

Purpose of this project is create pretty light manager like pm2.

It is bunch of bash scripts for start (restart, stop) Node.js process (package) in background.

# example of start `npm run prod`
$ snp start prod

Also providing easy way, how to update node projects from git.

# example of update process runned by `npm run prod`
$ snp update prod

Update have these steps:

1. stop
2. pull source code
3. call npm ci
4. restart process again

1. Install

Localy

$ git clone [email protected]:miuan/start-node-process.git
$ mkdir ~/bin
$ ln -s ~/start-node-process/src/snp.sh ~/bin/snp
$ chmod ug+x ~/bin/snp
$ . ~/.profile 

if . ~/.profile dosn't work you can try alternatively the source ~/.bash_profile maybe more information about this topic you can find on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4608187/how-to-reload-bash-profile-from-the-command-line

$ snp # should show you a help of usage

2. Usage

1. Start

start npm run xxx command in background

$ cd any-node-project/
$ snp start               # will run `npm start`

specify npm run command:

$ snp start dev          # will run `npm run dev`
$ snp start start:prod   # will run `npm run start:prod`

2. Restart

restart npm run xxx command what was runned in background

$ cd any-node-project/
$ snp restart              # will restart `npm start` command

specify what npm run command should be restarted:

$ snp restart dev          # will stop previus running `dev` instance and start again `npm run dev`
$ snp restart start:prod   # will run stop previus running `start:prod` instance and start again `npm run start:prod`

3. Update

stop npm run xxx command what was runned in background, update git, call npm install and start npm run xxx command again

$ cd any-node-project/
$ snp update              # will update `npm start` command and start again

specify what npm run command should be restarted:

$ snp update dev          # will update previous running `dev` instance and start again
$ snp update start:prod   # will update previous running `start:prod` instance and start again

4. Stop

stop npm run xxx command what was runned in background

$ cd any-node-project/
$ snp stop              # will stop `npm start` command

specify what npm run command should be restarted:

$ snp stop namespace           # will stop all running instancess with the same namespace 
$ snp stop namespace project   # will stop all running instancess with the same namespace and project
$ snp stop namespace project script   # will stop previus running `start:prod` instance

4. State

show all runing npm run xxx commands

cd any-node-project/
snp state              # will show only running `npm start` command

specify what npm run command should be restarted:

snp state namespace           # will show all running instances with the same namespace 
snp state namespace project   # will show all running instances with the same namespace and project
snp state namespace project script   # will show only running `npm run script` instance

5. Tail

tali -f log file of runing npm run xxx command

cd any-node-project/
snp tail              # will show log of running `npm start` command

specify what npm run command should be restarted:

snp update dev          # show log file of running `dev` instance
snp update start:prod   # show log file of running `start:prod` instance 

Have Fun :)
