nodejs clustering, zero downtime deployment solutions

Clustering: The basics

The trick? pass the file descriptor from a parent process and have the server.listen reuse that descriptor. So multiprocess in their own memory space (but with ENV shared usually)

It does not balance, it leaves it to the kernel.

In the last nodejs > 0.8 there is a cluster module (functional although marked experimental)

These are only examples, for a few very common actions. You are expected to write your own rules for the rest. The syntax is regular JavaScript, but see the polkit(8) manpage for the object structure and available API. These examples are for polkit versions 106 and later, with the JS interpreter. They won't work with Debian's polkit v105.

  • If you don't know the action name, either run pkaction and look for anything similar:

    pkaction | grep cups
    

    ...or try to perform the actual action, cancel it, then look in your system logs:

    journalctl -t polkitd -n 10 | grep action
