使用 upstart 啟動 node.js 的常駐程式

# /etc/init/autopatch.conf

description "autopatch service"

start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up)
stop on shutdown

respawn # restart when job dies
respawn limit 10 5 # give up restart after 5 respawns in 5 seconds

script

export NODE_PATH="/usr/lib/node_modules/"
export HOME="/root"
export NODE_ENV="production"

exec /usr/bin/node /home/www/node.js/autopatch/server.js >> /var/log/node.js/autopatch.log 2>&1

end script

而日後只要下以下指令

start autopatch (啟動)

restart autopatch (重啟)

stop autopatch (停止)

相當的方便
