React-redux-universal-hot-example: pm2 config

[LarryEitel]

Anyone deploying this package along with pm2 or forever? If so, could you share any config/startup details?

I've used pm2 in the past however using it on this project is a bit more involved.

I figured a way to successfully launch it without pm2 like:
node /srv/www/react-redux-universal-hot-example/node_modules/better-npm-run/index.js start

I've tried without success:
NODE_PATH=./src NODE_ENV=production PORT=3015 pm2 start node /srv/www/react-redux-universal-hot-example/node_modules/better-npm-run/index.js start
and
pm2 start node /srv/www/react-redux-universal-hot-example/node_modules/better-npm-run/index.js start

Tried run per pm2 docs: pm2 start apps.js

App name │ id │ mode │ pid  │ status │ restart │ uptime │ memory     │ watching │
apps      │ 0  │ fork │ 7044 │ online │ 0       │ 0s     │ 5.426 MB  

Using the following apps.js:

{
  "apps" : [{
    "name"        : "redux.xchg.com",
    "script"      : "index.js",
    "args"        : ["start"],
    "cwd"         : "/srv/www/react-redux-universal-hot-example/node_modules/better-npm-run",
    "env": {
        "NODE_ENV":     "production",
        "NODE_PATH":     "./src", 
        "PORT":        3015
    }
  }]
}

However in either case, no app when I hit the url.

Edited question to include request for suggestions for using forever on a production server as well.

Finally got it working with the following:

PORT=xxxx NODE_ENV=production NODE_PATH=./src pm2 start ./bin/server.js --name xxxxx

Be sure to run npm run build first. :)

Thanks!
Here is my config file: ecosystem.json

{
  "apps" : [

    {
      "name": "tubitv",
      "script": "./bin/server.js",
      "instances"  : 0,
      "exec_mode"  : "cluster_mode",
      "env": {
        "NODE_ENV": "production",
        "PORT": 5225,
        "APIPORT": 3030,
        "NODE_PATH": "./src"
      }
    },

    {
      "name": "tubitv_api",
      "script": "./bin/api.js",
      "instances"  : 0,
      "exec_mode"  : "cluster_mode",
      "env": {
        "NODE_ENV": "production",
        "APIPORT": 3030,
        "NODE_PATH": "./api"
      }
    }
  ]
}

# start the server
pm2 start ecosystem.json

Thank's to @zhiyelee
But, I found miss config.
"exec_mode" : "fork",
Because cluster is need to different port for each other instance.
