Planka server

This repository contains a Sails.js application that can be run without using sails lift. Instead, you can start the server using node app.js or other process managers.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Make sure you have the following installed:

• Node.js (LTS recommended)
• NPM or Yarn
• Sails.js (if needed, install globally using npm install -g sails)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/your-repo.git
   cd your-repo
   

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

Running the Application

You can start the server using:

node app.js

Alternatively, you can use process managers like:

• npm start
• forever start app.js
• pm2 start app.js
• node debug app.js

Configuration

You can pass command-line arguments and environment variables to customize the server behavior. Example:

NODE_ENV=production node app.js --port=80 --verbose

For more configuration options, refer to the Sails.js documentation.

Deployment

When deploying to a platform like Heroku, ensure that:

• All dependencies are installed using npm install --production.
• The correct environment variables are set.
• The process is managed correctly (e.g., using forever or pm2).
