How to execute npm start command using pm2 process manager

Other Questions NPM

I’m wondering if pm2 can execute npm start commands directly or if I need to specify the main file like pm2 start server.js

During development I use:

npm start

For production with pm2, I want to do something like:

pm2 start 'npm start'

I know that forever has a similar feature:

forever start -c "npm start" ./

Is there an equivalent approach in pm2 to run npm scripts instead of pointing directly to the JavaScript file?
