We are facing some issue while using npm package forever Trying to restart the server automatically after crash.
Below is the code.
Before
"start":"nodemon --watch '**/*.ts' --exec ts-node index.ts""
After
"start": "forever start --minUptime 1000 --spinSleepTime 10000 ./index.ts",

"scripts": {
    "start": "forever start --minUptime 1000 --spinSleepTime 10000 ./index.ts",
    "bundle-colyseus-client": "browserify ./node_modules/colyseus.js/lib/index.js -s Colyseus -o static/colyseus.js",
    "build": "npm run bundle-colyseus-client",
    "heroku-postbuild": "npm run build"
  }

Aah interesting I'm also wondering about this thing but don't know about forever package. Hope so it will solve my problem too while deploying the game I'm working on multiplayer puzzle game in JS. And noticed that whenever server is crashed need to spin it again.

@ahtashamabbasse AFAIK you can't use forever with TypeScript files, you need to compile them into JavaScript and run it against the JavaScript output.

Compile the project:

tsc -p tsconfig.json

Start forever using compiled lib/index.js

forever start --minUptime 1000 --spinSleepTime 10000 ./lib/index.js
