Pm2: PM2 monit old interface

[kirkins]

How do I switch between these two visual modes on pm2?

[vmarchaud]

We totally removed the old mode since it was broken, so there is only the bottom one starting pm2 2.4.0.

[kirkins]

What was broken about it? If the bug is fixed will it be brought back in a future update?

[vmarchaud]

No, the new one has more features (and show the cpu/mem like before) so there is no point brought it back.

[Unitech]

We may add back this interface, reopening

[grit96]

The new interface has very high CPU usage and freezes after being open for some time. It's not very suitable for continuous monitoring like the old one was.

[vmarchaud]

@grit96 I just pushed a commit to fix high CPU usage, could you retry : npm install -g Unitech/pm2#development ?

[grit96]

I will leave pm2 monit running and see how it performs leaving it for a while.

[kirkins]

Thanks my co-worker agrees we loved the old it was perfect for picking up on memory leaks and other potential problems!

[grit96]

I left it running overnight and now it is using 100% CPU and is completely frozen

Made https://github.com/soyuka/pm2-cli-monit for a temporary solution.

[vmarchaud]

It will be re-added in 2.4.1 before the end of the week

[vmarchaud]

It will be aliased as pm2 imonit

This is perfect, I came here for the same reason. Mine freezes within an hour of usage, as there is a lot of log output on my application. That old interface lets me visualize everything, and I had my terminator window perfectly set up like the new "dash" looks

[cuteboi]

Can't wait for 2.4.1

[Unitech]

You can already use 2.4.1:

$ npm install Unitech/pm2#development -g

[vmarchaud]

Released in pm2 2.4.1 : use pm2 imonit to get the old interface back
