Is there a CLI tag for running pm2 start npm -- start
in a specific directory? I looked around but could find an answer.
On the other hand, when I run pm2 without npm, I can specify which directory I want to run pm2 in. For example:
pm2 start /opt/www/myapp/index.js
Is there any way to add a path tag to the pm2 start npm -- start
command?
CodePudding user response:
You can use something like this:
cd /directory/of/my/app ; pm2 start npm -- start
You can also write an ecosystem file to parameter you app:
{
"apps": [
{
"name": "my-app",
"cwd": "/path/to/app",
"script": "npm",
"args": "start"
}
]
}
To generate an empty ecosystem file:
pm2 init simple
this will generate a file named ecosystem.config.js
that you can rename.
Then to start application:
pm2 start ecosystem.config.js
