pm2 ecosystem for Ubuntu VPS in production.
I use this in production for my personal projects
As my config and preference for the file and folder:
/home/deploy/ecosystem.config.js(File)/home/deploy/strapi-backend/(Folder)
In terminal at the file level type:
pm2 start ecosystem.config.jsOnce apps is an array you can insert more apps in the list and all will run when you type the command
When using Strapi 4 just replace with your API_KEYS, SECRET, TOKEN, etc as you need.
/home/deploy/ecosystem.config.js
module.exports = {
apps: [
{
name: "strapi-backend",
cwd: "./strapi-backend",
script: "server.js", // I file I keep at the root of strapi - check /strapi/server.js
instances: 'max', // Max processors available in the VPS
exec_mode: 'cluster',
watch: ["config", "src", "package.json", "tsconfig.json", "types"], // Watching all folders stuck restarting forever, so I ellected these files
env: {
NODE_ENV: "production",
HOST: "0.0.0.0", // Can be this host in production
PORT: 1337, // Common port used for strapi can be 1338 or other
