skale

Create, run and deploy distributed NodeJS applications

The skale command is the quickest and easiest way to create distributed scalable applications based on skale-engine and then to submit them either locally or on the cloud.

Install

Assuming you have already installed NodeJS:

$ npm install -g skale

Getting started

To create an application called my_app, simply run

$ skale create my_app

It will create a directory my_app, populate it with a template application my_app.js, and install skale-engine dependency using npm.

You can then go to my_app and run your app using skale run:

$ cd my_app
$ skale run

To do something useful, modify your application by editing my_app.js, then run again using skale run.

Under the hood, the skale run commands starts a skale-engine cluster on the the localhost at the first invocation, then simply executes my_app.js. You can check the status of the cluster using the skale status command, and stop it using skale stop.

To go on further details, please refer to skale-engine documentation.
