pm2-folder-logrotate v2.7.2

Description

PM2 module to automatically rotate logs of processes managed by PM2.

Install

pm2 install pm2-folder-logrotate

NOTE: the command is pm2 install NOT npm install

Configure

• max_size (Defaults to 10M): When a file size becomes higher than this value it will be rotated (its possible that the worker checks the file after it actually passes the limit). You can specify the unit at then end: 10G, 10M, 10K
• retain (Defaults to 30 file logs): This number is the number of rotated logs to keep at any one time. If you have retain = 7, then you will have at most 7 rotated logs and your current one.
• compress (Defaults to false): Enable compression via gzip for all rotated logs
• dateFormat (Defaults to YYYY-MM-DD_HH-mm-ss) : Format of the data used the name the file of log
• rotateModule (Defaults to true) : Rotate the log of pm2's module like other apps
• folderModule (Defaults to false) : Save the log to the folder, and the folder name is like dateFormat.
• workerInterval (Defaults to 30 in secs) : You can control at which interval the worker checks the log size (minimum is 1)
• TZ (Defaults to system time): This is the standard tz database timezone used to offset the log file saved. For instance, a value of Etc/GMT+1, with an hourly log, will save a file at hour 14 GMT with hour 13 (GMT+1) in the log name.
• rotateInterval (Defaults to 0 0 * * * everyday at midnight): This cron is used to a force rotate when executed. We are using node-schedule to schedule cron, so all valid cron for node-schedule is valid cron for this option. Cron style :

*    *    *    *    *    *
┬    ┬    ┬    ┬    ┬    ┬
│    │    │    │    │    |
│    │    │    │    │    └ day of week (0 - 7) (0 or 7 is Sun)
│    │    │    │    └───── month (1 - 12)
│    │    │    └────────── day of month (1 - 31)
│    │    └─────────────── hour (0 - 23)
│    └──────────────────── minute (0 - 59)
└───────────────────────── second (0 - 59, OPTIONAL)

How to set these values ?

After having installed the module you have to type : pm2 set pm2-folder-logrotate:<param> <value>

e.g:

• pm2 set pm2-folder-logrotate:max_size 1K (1KB)
• pm2 set pm2-folder-logrotate:compress true (compress logs when rotated)
• pm2 set pm2-folder-logrotate:rotateInterval '*/1 * * * *' (force rotate every minute)
