How do you stop a perl Dancer/Starman/Plack server?

I started a Dancer/Starman server using:

sudo plackup -s Starman -p 5001 -E deployment --workers=10 -a mywebapp/bin/app.pl

but I'm unsure how I can stop the server. Can someone provide me with a quick way of stopping it and all the workers it has spawned?

Solution

  • Use the

    --pid /path/to/the/pid.file

    and you can kill the process based on his PID

    So, using the above options, you can use

    kill $(cat /path/to/the/pid.file)

    the pid.file simply stores the master's PID - don't need analyze the ps output...
