AdonisJS Maintenance

Flags for the maintenance:down command in AdonisJS: --secret to bypass, --template for a custom Edge page, --redirect, plus --retry and --refresh

Allow bypassing maintenance

When providing a secret using the --secret flag you can bypass the maintenance mode by accessing the url https://<mysite>/<secret>.

node ace maintenance:down --secret <secret>

You will be redirected with a cookie containing the hash of the secret. Consequent requests will bypass the maintenance.

To render a custom maintenance page you must have Edge.js installed and use the --template flag.

node ace maintenance:down --template <template>

To limit runtime execution during maintenance mode, the template is prerendered when activating maintenance.

You can redirect users to a different url by using the --redirect flag.

node ace maintenance:down --redirect /maintenance

You can configure the Refresh and Retry headers using the --refresh and --retry flags.

node ace maintenance:down --retry 30 --refresh 30

The retry value is also passed to the template as retryAfter.
