how to specify port number

8 Replies

Hi @japope. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To specify the port number for the Refine Devtools server, you can follow these steps: 1. Using Environment Variable: You can set the REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT environment variable to the desired port number. This can be done by adding the following line to your environment configuration:

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5002 refine dev

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5002 refine dev

When REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT is set in the refine dev command, it will be automatically propagated to your app and made available as an environment variable. The environment variable will automatically be used by the <DevtoolsProvider /> component of the @refinedev/devtools to connect to the devtools server.

   import Refine from "@refinedev/core";  
   import { DevtoolsProvider, DevtoolsPanel } from "@refinedev/devtools";  
   
   const App = () => {  
     return (  
       <DevtoolsProvider  
         url="<http://refine-devtools.local">  
       >  
         <Refine>  
           {/* ... */}  
           <DevtoolsPanel />  
         </Refine>  
     );  
   };

   import Refine from "@refinedev/core";  
   import { DevtoolsProvider, DevtoolsPanel } from "@refinedev/devtools";  
   
   const App = () => {  
     return (  
       <DevtoolsProvider  
         url="<http://refine-devtools.local">  
       >  
         <Refine>  
           {/* ... */}  
           <DevtoolsPanel />  
         </Refine>  
     );  
   };

Using Command Line Arguments: If you are running the devtools manually, you can disable the automatic start of the devtools server by passing the --devtools=false flag to the refine dev command. Alternatively, you can install the @refinedev/devtools-server package and use the refine-devtools command to start the server.

   npm run refine dev --port 3001

   npm run refine dev --port 3001

Source (https://refine.dev/docs/packages/cli/#dev-start-build) 3. Docker Configuration: If you are using Docker, you can expose the port in your Dockerfile:

   EXPOSE 5001

   EXPOSE 5001

Source (https://refine.dev/docs/enterprise-edition/devtools/) By following these steps, you can specify and change the port number for the Refine Devtools server as needed. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i still get the error : address already in use :::5002

kapa.ai•2d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- If you are still encountering the error address already in use :::5002, it means that the port 5002 is already occupied by another process. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue: 1. Check for Running Processes on the Port: You can check which process is using the port and terminate it. - On macOS or Linux:

     lsof -i :5002

     lsof -i :5002

This will give you the PID (Process ID) of the process using the port. You can then terminate the process using:

     kill <PID>

     kill <PID>

- On Windows:

     netstat -ano | find "5002"

     netstat -ano | find "5002"

This will give you the PID of the process using the port. You can then terminate the process using:

     taskkill /F /PID <PID>

     taskkill /F /PID <PID>

Source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5215) 2. Change the Port Number: If you want to avoid conflicts, you can change the port number for the Refine Devtools server by setting the REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT environment variable to a different port number.

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5003 refine dev

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5003 refine dev

Source (https://refine.dev/docs/enterprise-edition/devtools/) 3. Disable Devtools Temporarily: If the issue persists, you can temporarily disable the devtools to see if the application starts without issues. You can do this by removing the @refinedev/devtools dependency from your project.

   npm uninstall @refinedev/devtools

   npm uninstall @refinedev/devtools

Source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5215) 4. Use npx kill-port: As a quick workaround, you can use the npx kill-port command to free up the port.

   npx kill-port 5002

   npx kill-port 5002

Source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5215) By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the address already in use error and run your Refine projects without port conflicts. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai node_modules/@refinedev/devtools-server/dist/index still points to 5002

kapa.ai•2d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- If the node_modules/@refinedev/devtools-server/dist/index still points to port 5002 and you are encountering issues with the port being in use, you can try the following steps to resolve the issue: 1. Check for Running Processes on Port 5002: Identify and terminate any process that is using port 5002. - On macOS or Linux:

     lsof -i :5002

     lsof -i :5002

Terminate the process using:

     kill <PID>

     kill <PID>

- On Windows:

     netstat -ano | find "5002"

     netstat -ano | find "5002"

Terminate the process using:

     taskkill /F /PID <PID>

     taskkill /F /PID <PID>

Source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5215) 2. Change the Port Number: Set the REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT environment variable to a different port number to avoid conflicts.

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5003 refine dev

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5003 refine dev

Source (https://refine.dev/docs/enterprise-edition/devtools/) 3. Use npx kill-port: Use the npx kill-port command to free up the port.

   npx kill-port 5002

   npx kill-port 5002

Source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5215) 4. Manual Configuration: If you are running multiple Refine projects and need to configure the devtools server manually, ensure that each instance is set to use a different port. You can start the devtools server manually with a specified port:

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5003 refine-devtools

   REFINE_DEVTOOLS_PORT=5003 refine-devtools

Source (https://refine.dev/docs/enterprise-edition/devtools/) By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue with the port being in use and configure the devtools server to use a different port. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
