This is a sample LoopBack Node.js application which will use a modified Node.js buildpack to run on Bluemix. It starts strong-pm (StrongLoop process manager) in Bluemix to start and supervise your application. You can then use StrongLoop Arc to remotely manage your Bluemix application.
When you click this button, Bluemix will clone this repository into an IBM DevOps Services project, set up the deployment pipeline, and push your application to Bluemix. Your application will get deployed with two routes.
<app_name>-arc.mybluemix.net # To access Arc for managing your application
<app_name>.mybluemix.net # To access your sample application
<app_name>-pm.mybluemix.net # To access Strong PM
Once application is deployed, launch Arc locally: In a CLI, globally install the strongloop client and then launch Arc. Node (and npm) is a prerequisite.
npm install -g strongloop
slc arc
Then, add your PM URL with port 80 into the process manager. You can then use Arc to manage your remotely running application.
