Having just started using Azure Web Sites with NodeJS and MongoDB I thought I’d blog several of the commands I use often (mostly for me to go back to). Here is my short list
NodeJS
- node server.js – starts node
- node –debug server.js – starts node and enables debugging (needs npm install –g node-inspector)
- npm install – installs all node packages in project
MongoDb
- mongod – starts mongo daemon
- mongostat – shows stats while mongodb running
- mongotop – shows top mongo processes
Windows Azure CLI
- npm install azure – so you can use azure command line (cli)
- npm install azure-cli –g
- azure site create mywebsite
- azure site list
- azure site start mywebsite
- azure site delete mywebsite
- azure site log tail mywebsite
