About Porter
Porter is a command-line interface (CLI) tool that makes it easy to run background services by adding a few lines to a configuration file.
These services are managed by Supervisord, a process control system that ensures that all processes are kept up and running.
With Porter, you don't have to manually start and manage background services in multiple terminal tabs.
Instead, you can simply use the porter
command to manage all of your services in a single place.
Installation
To install Porter, you can use composer
or download the build manually from this repository.
composer global require anystack-sh/porter
Requirements
To use Porter you must install supervisord
:
- macOS:
brew install supervisor
- Linux:
apt install supervisor
If you want to use the watch feature to restart services when files change you will also need to install:
- chokidar:
npm install --global chokidar
Add your first project
In your terminal navigate to your project and run porter init
to create a boilerplate porter.yml
:
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter init Create porter.yml in /Users/Developer/anystack? (yes/no) [yes]: > yes Creating porter.yml boilerplate: ✔ Run "porter add" to add your product and start your services.
Modify porter.yml
and add the services you want to run. In your terminal navigate to your project and run porter add
:
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter add
Adding /Users/Developer/anystack: ✔
Restarting Porter: ✔
A new porter.yml
has been created. This file contains all the services you want to run in the background, for example:
services: - name: Queue command: php artisan horizon processes: 3 # Optional, number of parallel processes. Defaults to 1 restart: watch: - app/Jobs - app/Mail/WelcomEmail.php - name: Vite directory: Users/developer/anystack/front-end command: npm run dev environment: FOO: "BAR" - name: Octane command: php artisan octane:start --port=8000 --no-interaction - name: Stripe command: stripe listen --forward-to localhost:8000/webhooks/stripe restart: minutes: 5
The following properties are available per command:
If you have made changes to your porter.yml
you can use the porter restart
command to apply your changes.
Monitoring services
To monitor your services you can use the porter status
command.
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter status +----------+-----------------+---------+---------------------------+ | App | Name | Status | Description | +----------+-----------------+---------+---------------------------+ | anystack | anystack-octane | RUNNING | pid 41277, uptime 0:03:29 | | anystack | anystack-queue | RUNNING | pid 41275, uptime 0:03:29 | | anystack | anystack-vite | RUNNING | pid 41276, uptime 0:03:29 | +----------+-----------------+---------+---------------------------+
Tail service logs
Basic tail usage
You can tail one or more services (unified) using the porter tail
command.
This command is context-aware and will automatically ask which services you want to tail:
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter tail Which service do you want to tail?: [0] anystack-octane [1] anystack-queue [2] anystack-vite > 0,1 Use CTRL+C to stop tailing. Horizon started successfully. INFO Server running… Local: http://127.0.0.1:8000 200 GET / ... 33.38 mb 79.10 ms
Tail all available services
To automatically tail all available services, pass the --all
option:
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter tail --all
Use CTRL+C to stop tailing.
Horizon started successfully.
INFO Server running…
Local: http://127.0.0.1:8000
200 GET / ... 33.38 mb 79.10 ms
Tail one or more services
You can specify one or more services that you would like to tail by passing
the --services
option with a comma-separated list of service indexes or service names.
You can find the index and name of each available service by running porter tail
with no arguments:
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter tail Which service do you want to tail?: [0] anystack-octane [1] anystack-queue [2] anystack-vite
The following examples reference the service names and indexes found above:
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter tail --services=0,2
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter tail --services=anystack-octane,anystack-vite
The above two commands are functionally equivalent.
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter tail --services=1
~/Developer/anystack: $ porter tail --services=anystack-queue
The above two commands are functionally equivalent.
