Zach: In terms of defining a "wider" solution, I dunno. :) I guess I meant a single solution for Node specifically that would operate on various OSes and do what StrontgLoop pm does (or pm2/forever). Why, what sort of solution were you referring to? ;)
As for what StrongLoop is providing with this new release: it is a replacement for pm2 or forever that provides more than just an integrated GUI: it also has support for multi-machine deploys and monitoring, as well as integration with nginx for load balancing. It does not provide a replacement for something like upstart. It does, however, support nginx integration on other platforms, and since Node runs on multiple platforms we have that aspect covered to some degree. --Jordan On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 10:59:23 AM UTC-8, Zach Rollyson wrote: > > So does StrongLoop have a wider "solution"? and by "wider" do you mean > running on a Windows machine or something? adding a GUI on top of it? > > On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 1:46:56 PM UTC-5, Jordan Kasper wrote: >> >> I've seen those as well... that's the only "solution" I've seen around, >> and honestly, they're not much better than a gist of "here's what I did". >> Not saying they aren't perfectly acceptable solutions... just not a wider >> solution. >> >> --Jordan >> >> >> On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 10:39:28 AM UTC-8, Zach Rollyson wrote: >>> >>> PM2 has generators for init scripts that I have used on debian based >>> servers and modified slightly for use on solaris servers with success. >>> >>> On Monday, February 9, 2015 at 1:33:42 PM UTC-5, Matt Sergeant wrote: >>>> >>>> I don't use any of the "node" process managers because they don't solve >>>> the problem of starting your process at server boot.
