Starting mkdocs with pm2

[kamieniarz]

Hello, currently I launch my mkdocs with screen -S docs mkdocs serve -a 127.0.0.1:4000 - would it be possible to start it with pm2?

After a quick search I get that pm2 was designed with Node applications in mind.

So I searched if it can run Python scripts too, and it seems that it does.

pm2 start mkdocs --interpreter=python

However, I'm not sure if you can pass arguments in the command.
There are some examples of some ecosystem.config.json files that seem to allow to pass arguments.

Please note that the MkDocs development server is not meant for hosting, only for previewing your site. It is inefficient and insecure. You should build your site with mkdocs build and then use any web server, e.g. nginx, for hosting your content.
