1.1.2

• [#2071 #2075] Fix pm2-dev command

Galactica

This release is about PM2's internals refactoring, homogenization in action commands (in terms of behavior and outputs). Some interesting features has been added, as YAML file support (for application declaration) and better support for other languages (Python,Perl...). The Keymetrics agent has been enhanced, dividing by two the memory usage and avoiding any possible leak in any potential scenarios. Reconnection system has been refactored too.

Keymetrics users: a lot of benefits brought to you to do this upgrade

This version has been heavily tested in testing, production environments and deeply monitored in terms of CPU and Memory usage. Tests have been hardened.

Update procedure

PM2 CLI and internals have been frozen since the 0.14 version, so updating PM2 is totally seamless:
