deploy-from-npm
Continuous deployment tool using npm.
Watches npm for all updates to top level dependencies, then if there's a match it runs tests, upgrades your app and fires your restart command.
Usage
$ cd my-service $ # use something like psy or forever to run your service $ npm install -g psy$ psy start -n my-service -- npm start $ # use deploy-from-npm to restart it once a dependency has been updated $ npm install -g deploy-from-npm$ deploy-from-npm . "psy restart my-service"
And in general:
$ deploy-from-npm Usage: $ deploy-from-npm DIR RELOAD Example: $ deploy-from-npm /srv/my-service "kill $server-pid"
Installation
$ npm install -g deploy-from-npm
