Foreman-Gui

Foreman-Gui is a nifty command line utility for generating Procfiles. Foreman-Gui works with all Foreman implementations.

Install

Install the command line tool

$ npm install -g foreman-gui

Usage

Foreman-gui has a very simple API. It only takes one parameter - the FullProcfile location. FullProcfile is a file where all your servies are defined like in a normal Procfile. Procfile is generated from your FullProcfile.

Runs Foreman-gui with the target file FullProcfile

$ fmg

Runs Foreman-gui with a custom target file.

$ fmg custom_procfile_location

After you have generated the Procfile, start foreman normally.

$ foreman

Or using node-foreman

$ nf

FullProcfile

The FullProcfile format is a simple key : command format:

web: node web_server.js
api: node api_server.js
log: node log_server.js

Each line should contain a separate process.
