PM2 is a production process manager for Node.js/Bun applications with a built-in load balancer. It allows you to keep applications alive forever, to reload them without downtime and to facilitate common system admin tasks.
|
|
|
|
Starting an application in production mode is as easy as:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 start app.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
PM2 is constantly assailed by [more than 1800 tests](https://github.com/Unitech/pm2/actions/workflows/node.js.yml).
|
|
|
|
Official website: [https://pm2.keymetrics.io/](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/)
|
|
|
|
Works on Linux (stable) & macOS (stable) & Windows (stable). All Node.js versions are supported starting Node.js 12.X and Bun since v1
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installing PM2
|
|
|
|
### With NPM
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ npm install pm2 -g
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### With Bun
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ bun install pm2 -g
|
|
```
|
|
**Please note that you might need to symlink node to bun if you only want to use bun via `sudo ln -s /home/$USER/.bun/bin/bun /usr/bin/node`**
|
|
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
You can install Node.js easily with [NVM](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#installing-and-updating) or [FNM](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm) or install Bun with `curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash`
|
|
|
|
### Start an application
|
|
|
|
You can start any application (Node.js, Bun, and also Python, Ruby, binaries in $PATH...) like that:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 start app.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Your app is now daemonized, monitored and kept alive forever.
|
|
|
|
### Managing Applications
|
|
|
|
Once applications are started you can manage them easily:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
To list all running applications:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Managing apps is straightforward:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 stop <app_name|namespace|id|'all'|json_conf>
|
|
$ pm2 restart <app_name|namespace|id|'all'|json_conf>
|
|
$ pm2 delete <app_name|namespace|id|'all'|json_conf>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To have more details on a specific application:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 describe <id|app_name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To monitor logs, custom metrics, application information:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 monit
|
|
```
|
|

|
### Cluster Mode: Node.js Load Balancing & Zero Downtime Reload
|
|
|
|
The Cluster mode is a special mode when starting a Node.js application, it starts multiple processes and load-balance HTTP/TCP/UDP queries between them. This increase overall performance (by a factor of x10 on 16 cores machines) and reliability (faster socket re-balancing in case of unhandled errors).
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Starting a Node.js application in cluster mode that will leverage all CPUs available:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 start api.js -i <processes>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`<processes>` can be `'max'`, `-1` (all cpu minus 1) or a specified number of instances to start.
|
|
|
|
**Zero Downtime Reload**
|
|
|
|
Hot Reload allows to update an application without any downtime:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 reload all
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
### Container Support
|
|
|
|
With the drop-in replacement command for `node`, called `pm2-runtime`, run your Node.js application in a hardened production environment.
|
|
Using it is seamless:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
RUN npm install pm2 -g
|
|
CMD [ "pm2-runtime", "npm", "--", "start" ]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Host monitoring speedbar
|
|
|
|
PM2 allows to monitor your host/server vitals with a monitoring speedbar.
|
|
|
|
To enable host monitoring:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 set pm2:sysmonit true
|
|
$ pm2 update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Terminal Based Monitoring
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Monitor all processes launched straight from the command line:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 monit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Log Management
|
|
|
|
To consult logs just type the command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 logs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Standard, Raw, JSON and formated output are available.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 logs APP-NAME # Display APP-NAME logs
|
|
$ pm2 logs --json # JSON output
|
|
$ pm2 logs --format # Formated output
|
|
|
|
$ pm2 flush # Flush all logs
|
|
$ pm2 reloadLogs # Reload all logs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To enable log rotation install the following module
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pm2 install pm2-logrotate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Startup Scripts Generation
|
|
|
|
PM2 can generate and configure a Startup Script to keep PM2 and your processes alive at every server restart.
|
|
|
|
Init Systems Supported: **systemd**, **upstart**, **launchd**, **rc.d**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Generate Startup Script
|
|
$ pm2 startup
|
|
|
|
# Freeze your process list across server restart
|
|
$ pm2 save
|
|
|
|
# Remove Startup Script
|
|
$ pm2 unstartup
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Updating PM2
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Install latest PM2 version
|
|
$ npm install pm2@latest -g
|
|
# Save process list, exit old PM2 & restore all processes
|
|
$ pm2 update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
*PM2 updates are seamless*
|
|
|
