$ pm2 start npm -- start # Start, Daemonize and auto-restart Node application

# Cluster Mode (Node.js only)
$ pm2 start app.js -i 4 # Start 4 instances of application in cluster mode
# it will load balance network queries to each app
$ pm2 reload all # Zero Second Downtime Reload
$ pm2 scale [app-name] 10 # Scale Cluster app to 10 process

# Process Monitoring
$ pm2 list # List all processes started with PM2

$ pm2 monit # Display memory and cpu usage of each app
$ pm2 show [app-name] # Show all information about application

# Log management
$ pm2 logs # Display logs of all apps
$ pm2 logs [app-name] # Display logs for a specific app
$ pm2 logs --json # Logs in JSON format
$ pm2 flush
$ pm2 reloadLogs

# Process State Management
$ pm2 start app.js --name="api" # Start application and name it "api"
$ pm2 start app.js -- -a 34 # Start app and pass option "-a 34" as argument
$ pm2 start app.js --watch # Restart application on file change
$ pm2 start script.sh # Start bash script

# Startup/Boot management
$ pm2 startup # Detect init system, generate and configure pm2 boot on startup
$ pm2 save # Save current process list
$ pm2 resurrect # Restore previously saved processes
$ pm2 unstartup # Disable and remove startup system

$ pm2 update # Save processes, kill PM2 and restore processes
$ pm2 generate # Generate a sample json configuration file
$ pm2 describe <id|app_name>
```

# Deployment

Once applications are started you can list and manage them easily:
### Cluster Mode: Node.js Load Balancing & Hot Reload

![Process listing](https://github.com/unitech/pm2/raw/master/pres/pm2-list.png)
The Cluster mode is a special mode when starting a Node.js application, it starts multiple processes and load-balance HTTP/TCP/UDP queries between them. This increase overall performance (by a factor of x10 on 16 cores machines) and reliability (faster socket re-balancing in case of unhandled errors).

Listing all running processes:
Starting a Node.js application in cluster mode that will leverage all CPUs available:

```bash
$ pm2 list
$ pm2 start api.js -i <processes>
```

Managing processes is straightforward:
`<processes>` can be `'max'`, `-1` (all cpu minus 1) or a specified number of instances to start.

```bash
$ pm2 stop <app_name|id|'all'|json_conf>
$ pm2 restart <app_name|id|'all'|json_conf>
$ pm2 delete <app_name|id|'all'|json_conf>
```
**Hot Reload**

To have more details on a specific process:
Hot Reload allows to update an application without any downtime:

```bash
$ pm2 describe <id|app_name>
$ pm2 reload all
```

[More about Process Management](http://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/process-management/)

### Load Balancing & Zero second Downtime Reload

When an application is started with the `-i <instance_number>` parameter, the **Cluster Mode** is activated.

The Cluster Mode starts `<instance_number>` instances of your app and automatically load balance HTTP/TCP/UDP between each instances. This allows to increase overall performance and reliability depending on the number of CPUs available.

Seamlessly supported by all major Node.js frameworks and any Node.js applications without any code change:

$ pm2 start app.js -i max
### Container Support

# Update your application with Zero Downtime Reload (requests are not lost)

With the drop-in replacement command for `node`, called `pm2-runtime`, run your Node.js application in a proper production environment.
