Schedule a start/shutdown nodejs app

[mricardi]

Hi Guys,

I’ve been thinking a way to schedule the shutdown and startup of my app at specific times of the day
for example, at night, I won’t be working on my app, so I could shut it down to reduce resource consumption, and then start it up again in the morning to continue working on it.

I think I have an idea of how to schedule the shutdown, but I’m not sure how to automate the startup. My idea was to create a scheduled task to run the command "node app.js", but I’m not sure if it’s the best approach

Do you have any recommendations?
