CLI

Installation

If you have Node.js and npm installed, you can install TallyArbiter as a CLI and run it from the command line or terminal using

npm install --global tallyarbiter

or in short: npm i -g tallyarbiter

Depending on your OS, you may need to run the command as root using the prefix "sudo".

sudo npm install --global tallyarbiter

Then, start it by typing tallyarbiter.

Upgrading

To install the latest version, just run the same command from above (npm i -g tallyarbiter) again.

Be sure to back up or save your config file!

Running as a service

1. Open a terminal window and change directory to the folder where you placed the source code.
2. Install the Node.js library, pm2, by typing npm install -g pm2. This will install it globally on your system.
3. After pm2 is installed, type pm2 start tallyarbiter --name TallyArbiter to daemonize it as a service.
4. If you would like it to start automatically upon bootup, type pm2 save and then pm2 startup and follow the instructions on-screen.
5. To view the console output while running the software with pm2, type pm2 logs TallyArbiter.
