Do pm2 restart terminate ongoing rest api's

Question

i am using pm2 in production apps

will pm2 restart terminate ongoing rest api's?

If yes then Is there a workaround for not terminating the existing Rest API's when pm2 restart.

Answer 1

You'll want to use cluster mode (-i 4) and pm2 reload to do zero downtime deploys.

There's a guide that goes in depth over things over here: https://futurestud.io/tutorials/pm2-cluster-mode-and-zero-downtime-restarts
