Start nodejs app that use cross-env with pm2

Question

I'm trying to start my nodejs app, the default cmd is the following :

pm2 start app.js

I can't do that because I use cross-env and the script as below:

"start": cross-env DOTENV_FILE=.env node build/app.js

So npm run start will launch the script above.

How can I serve my app using pm2 and the script above ?

Answer 1

You can use:

pm2 start npm -- start

or

pm2 start npm --name CrossApp -- run start

Hope this helps
