How to use pm2 startup command on Mac?

Question

My question is the same as How to use pm2 startup command on Debian platform? but i need to make it start on Mac OS (darwin)

I only found a very bref documentation $ pm2 startup <ubuntu|centos|gentoo|systemd>

What can I do?

Answer 1

PM2 now has darwin option for startup, so running:

pm2 startup darwin 

should work.

Also checkout this commit: 1. Make platform auto detecting. 2. Support darwin startup script. So right now, you can just call:

pm2 startup

and the script will recognise your OS.

NOTE: I'm currently having issues on Yosemite as the launchd gives me an error. You can find more info (and solution that works for me) here: darwin startup script fix on yosemite #989

Also if you can test it in your environment and support this pull request, it would be great:)
