@pm2/agent-node
Advanced tools
This module is used by @pm2/io to communicate with PM2.io's servers.
This module is using websocket to send and receive data from websocket server.
NOTE: This module is only compatible with node >= 6
Just like that:
const Agent = require('@pm2/agent-node')
// This object is used by the agent to send data for each status, you can edit it when you want
const process = {
axm_options: {}
}
// Init connection and verify credentials
const agent = new Agent({
publicKey: '', // Your PM2 Plus public key
secretKey: '', // Your PM2 Plus secret key
appName: '' // Your application name (used as server name also)
}, process)
// If public or secret key is invalid, an error will be throw
await agent.start()
You can send data like this:
agent.send('process:exception', {data: ...})
To release a new version, first install gren :
yarn global add github-release-notes
Push a commit in github with the new version you want to release :
git commit -am "version: major|minor|patch bump to X.X.X"
Care for the versionning, we use the semver versioning currently. Please be careful about the version when pushing a new package.
Then tag a version with git :
git tag -s vX.X.X
Push the tag into github (this will trigger the publish to npm) :
git push origin vX.X.X
To finish update the changelog of the release on github with gren (be sure that gren has selected the right tags):
gren release -o -D commits -u keymetrics -r pm2-io-agent-node
