Status

powertools-service

This is a windows service that runs and manages all the EA PowerTools services running in node.js

Usage

You must build the solution to produce a .exe binary file. Once this is done, you can install the .exe with sc create (info here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/bb490995.aspx). There must be a services.conf file beside the exe which tells the service which node projects to start. Read below for infor on the serices.conf file.

Config File

The configuration file is the same format as the Qlik Sense Service Dispatcher, and looks as follows:

[]
Identity=
Enabled=
DisplayName=
ExecType=
ExePath=
Script=

An example looks like:

[iportal]
Identity=iportal
Enabled=true
DisplayName=iPortal
ExecType=nodejs
ExePath=C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\ServiceDispatcher\Node\node.exe
Script=C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\EAPowerTools\iportal\server.js

The ExePath and Script can be relative paths as well.
