Automatically terminate the process after NPM Run serve

[史新瑞]

Hello everyone, after NPM run serve you need CTRL + C or something to stop the process, but I want it to stop automatically, what should I do

[史新瑞]

@史新瑞 npm run serve This command

[sdetweil]

@史新瑞 use pm2 to launch the process

my scripts, provide pm2 control, and using the installers/mm.sh

which u can change to just launch server mode

then you can pm2 start,stop, restart the defined process

see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

fixuppm2

last link on the page

the script sets up to launch the app at boot time as well, and pm2 will restart any app that fails…

[史新瑞]

@sdetweil Can you do this by modifying the serve.js file or the main.js file

[sdetweil]

@史新瑞 you do not touch our .js files…

just change the mm.sh to

npm run serve

instead of

npm start 

then everything is the same

MagicMirror ‘app’ to pm2 is ~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh

pm2 start MagicMirror
pm2 stop MagicMirror
pm2 restart MagicMirror

on reboot
pm2 starts MagicMirror

Try putting a space then & that works for me on a couple of different projects I am running. Like my DHCP server Hope it helps.
