Nodemon.io VS Phusion Passenger

nodemon - enables automatic reload of your server after code change docs

Then, install nodemon (in the VSCode terminal also), which, to my understanding, automatically refreshes the server you'll be sending requests to, whenever you make a change. Using plain node.js, you'd have to manually stop and restart the server after every change.

That's already pretty good, but as you already know it's a PITA to work with this during development. You will have to rebuild your Docker images whenever you change your code, even though your apps will probably support hot-reloading out of the box (or with something like Nodemon if not).

Are you moving your projects to use ES Modules but you are facing some unexpected issues? You are not alone in this fight. In this tutorial, you will learn how to set up nodemon along with ts-node.

We can now use npm run dev to start the server using nodemon, which enables hot refreshing on changes.

Welcome to my blog, where we dive into the intriguing world of Node.js development and tackle one of the common stumbling blocks many developers encounter: the "Nodemon Error - nodemon.ps1 cannot be loaded because running scripts is disabled on this system." If you've ever come across this error while working with Nodemon, fear not! In this article, we will explore the causes behind this issue, understand why scripts are disabled on certain systems and most importantly, provide you with practical solutions to overcome this obstacle and keep your development workflow seamless. So, let's embark on this troubleshooting journey together and empower ourselves to conquer the Nodemon Error!

You’ll need to restart the server using node index.js whenever you change any project file. You can also use Nodemon to automate this.

nodemon will be required to monitor for any changes in our source code and automatically restart our server.

Secondly, there is, of course, a bug with Passenger and /var/run/passenger-instreg (I can be found in that thread whining). My preferred fix for this is

While there is a debate on which ones are the best, we will be using Passenger and Nginx, since they are both fast and reliable. You may wish to do your own research and see which one works for you.

In this tutorial we will be deploying a Rails app with Passenger, as the application server, and Nginx, as the web server. Also, the Rails app will use Postgres, so we will be installing that as well.

Here's Puma's implementation, and Here's Passenger's implementation.

server { listen 80; listen [::]:80; server_name YOUR_DOMAIN.ORG; # If you deploy without DNS and SSL, you could leave servername blank like below # server_name _; root /home/deploy/APPNAME/current/public; passenger_enabled on; passenger_app_env production; passenger_env_var RUBYOPT '-r bundler/setup'; # Cf issue: https://github.com/phusion/passenger/issues/2409 # Uncomment if you use ActionCable and/or Turbo Streams # location /cable { # passenger_app_group_name APPNAME_websocket; # passenger_force_max_concurrent_requests_per_process 0; # } # Allow uploads up to 100MB in size client_max_body_size 100m; location ~ ^/assets { expires max; gzip_static on; } }

PHP is great, but not for all of us. What about running Node.js or Python apps? You might be tempted to use proxy_pass but it won't handle the app startup and crashes for us. Luckily we have a better option: Phusion Passenger.

I have been following all day guides on https://www.phusionpassenger.com/ on how to deploy Rails apps with Apache and Passenger.
