Running NodeBB
|
||||||
|
================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The preferred way to start and stop NodeBB is by invoking its executable:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* `./nodebb start` Starts the NodeBB server
|
||||||
|
* `./nodebb stop` Stops the NodeBB server
|
||||||
|
* Alternatively, you may use `npm start` and `npm stop` to do the same
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The methods listed below are alternatives to starting NodeBB via the executable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Simple Node.js Process
|
||||||
|
-----------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To start NodeBB, run it with `node` (some distributions use the executable `nodejs`, please adjust accordingly):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ cd /path/to/nodebb/install
|
||||||
|
$ node app
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
However, bear in mind that crashes will cause the NodeBB process to halt, bringing down your forum. Consider some of the more reliable options, below:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Supervisor Process
|
||||||
|
-----------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Using the [`supervisor` package](https://github.com/isaacs/node-supervisor), you can have NodeBB restart itself if it crashes:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ npm install -g supervisor
|
||||||
|
$ supervisor app
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As `supervisor` by default continues to pipe output to `stdout`, it is best suited to development builds.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Forever Daemon
|
||||||
|
-----------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Another way to keep NodeBB up is to use the [`forever` package](https://github.com/nodejitsu/forever) via the command line interface, which can monitor NodeBB and re-launch it if necessary:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. code:: bash
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ npm install -g forever
|
||||||
|
$ forever start app.js
