Node Gypsi

This package is still being developed. use carefully..

Node-Gypsi is a small open source node.js utility for managing and monitoring Node.js applications and process. It can start up deamons and services your application depends on. It uses Monit to manage these services.

Node-Gypsi has a very intuitive CLI wizard that helps you set up your applications dependencies. The current version supports "systemd" as I built this on Fedora 20. I plan to support Upstart and maybe Initd.

Installation

[sudo] npm install gypsi -g
