Interactive process management system
npm install weaverInteractive process management system for node.js
``bashGlobal
npm -g install weaver
If you have chosen local installation, check your
PATH environment variable. npm creates symlinks to
all binaries in node_modules/.bin hidden folder. So you may want to prepend it to PATH.Usage
weaver [--port ] [--config ] [--debug]
weaver [--port ] [--config ] upgrade
weaver [--port ] restart [[task|pid], ...]
weaver [--port ] stop [[task|pid], ...]
weaver [--port ] kill [[task|pid], ...]
weaver [--port ] drop
weaver [--port ] [--nocolor] status
weaver [--port ] [--nocolor] dump
weaver [--port ] monitor
weaver [--port ] exit
Commands
-
upgrade Extend configuration with tasks from configuration file
- restart Restart all tasks, task group, task by pid
- stop Stop all tasks, task group, task by pid
- kill Send signal to task group or task by pid
- drop Stop task group and remove it from configuration
- status Show status for all tasks
- dump Show current configuration
- monitor Stream log messages from daemon
- exit Stop all tasks and exitOptions
--config Configuration file [default: weaver.json]
--debug Do not fork and give additional output
--nocolor Do not use colors for output
--help Show help and exit
--version Show version and exit
--port Use specified port [default: 8092]
Also
WEAVER_PORT and WEAVER_DEBUG environment variables can be used to set options, but
command line options have higher priority.Configuration example
`json
{
"path": "..",
"tasks": {
"web": {
"count": 2,
"source": "lib/main.js",
"persistent": false,
"arguments": ["--web", "--port", [8001, 8002]],
"watch": ["lib/*/.js", "config/default.js", "config/local.json"],
"env": {
"NODE_ENV": "local"
}
}, "worker": {
"count": 1,
"timeout": 2000,
"source": "lib/main.js",
"persistent": false,
"arguments": ["--worker"],
"watch": ["lib/worker/*.js"],
"env": {
"NODE_ENV": "local"
}
},
"redis": {
"count": 1,
"source": "redis-cli",
"executable": true,
"arguments": ["monitor"]
}
}
}
`With such config file weaver will run three processes and restart them when one of watched files is modified. Fourth process will
send commands from redis in monitor mode to log. Processes are organized in three groups and can be managed by group name.
For example to restart web processes you need to say
weaver restart web
and to stop redis monitor
weaver stop redis
Processes in the web group get different command line arguments but similar environment. By default tasks have access to
PATH, NODE_PATH and HOME
environment variables. NODE_PATH is set automatically only when executable flag is not set.Bash commands to start processes manually in same way as weaver does in example above
NODE_ENV="local" node ../lib/main.js --web --port 8001
NODE_ENV="local" node ../lib/main.js --web --port 8002
NODE_ENV="local" node ../lib/main.js --worker
redis-cli monitor
Configuration file structure
-
path Path to working directory, relative to configuration file or absolute. Optional
- tasks Task groups
- count Task count for group. Can be zero
- source Source file or executable for task group. Relative to cwd or absolute
- persistent Restart task on unclean exit. Defaults to false. Boolean. Optional
- executable Source is executable itself and v8 instance is not needed to run it. Defaults to false. Boolean. Optional
- arguments Arguments for tasks in task group. Nested array should have length equal to task count. Optional
- env Environment variables for task group. Optional
- watch Restart all tasks in task group when one of watched files was modified. Optional
- timeout Timeout between SIGINT and SIGTERM for stop and restart commands. Defaults to 1000ms. Optional
- runtime Minimal runtime required for persistent task to be restarted after unclean exit. Defaults to 1000ms. Optional
- cwd Task group working directory. Relative to path or absolute. OptionalConfiguration file is validated with JSON Schema from file
lib/schema.json`.Weaver will collect logs for you and send anything from subtasks stdout and stderr to udp4:localhost:8092 (or any other port of your choice).
In debug mode this functionality is disabled and logs are printed to stdout.
To do something with this logs you can use monitor mode
weaver monitor
Or any other program capable to capture udp
socat udp4-listen:8092 stdout
