how to install nodeJS app with json config ? #68

Open jerrygaoLondon opened 8 years ago

jerrygaoLondon commented 8 years ago

I'm new to both forever and the forever-service. Could you please give me an example how to install my nodejs app/service with a configuration file ?

Currently, my nodejs app can be started via a configuration file following the practice discussed in stackoverflow, which makes me easily configure script file, log file path, out file path , etc. I can easily start my app via forever start /mnt/storage/myapp/config/myapp_config.json.

The reason of mine for trying your forever-service is that i can share one forever instances for multiple users on our server.

@jerrygaoLondon you could try 

cd /mnt/storage/myapp/config/
sudo forever-service install myapp --script myapp_config.json
