Flushing pm2 logs

Automatically log rotate all applications logs managed by PM2

Yes that’s another option, however personally I don’t use log rotates for a variety of reasons. In this case specifically, others have mentioned problems with it on the PM2 site.

I just want to add, that using pm2 flush in a script (for restart purposes) may not work as expected. The next operation will start immediately, before flush completes, and thus the new thread will already start writing to the file, blocking it from getting cleared.

You need to wait for the entire thread to finish, like this:

pm2 flush; pm2 start mm; echo "this doesn't clear the logs";

pm2 flush &&  pm2 start mm; echo "now it works";
