pearls v0.0.1

Motivation

I built this utility because it's easier managing multiple processes in one terminal window vs having a dozen open.

Features

• Run multiple process in parallel.
• Restart procs if any files change.
• Take running processes and start them under a pearl group.

Requirements

• Node.js

Installation

npm install pearls

Usage

In the project you want to run parallel processes, add a app-name.prls file with content similar to this:

[master]
command = node ./ --master

[slave]
command = node ./ --slave

In Terminal, navigate to your project directory, and call:

prls

Pearls will add the processes to the app-name group. You can start the process group by calling:

prls start app-name
