Description
Hello !
First of course, I want to thank all the maintainers for this great project. 🙇
I have an Electron/Express app which needs to manage sub processes.
PM2 has been working great, but I'm wondering about how to stream stdout/stderr and stdin.
As far as I can tell, the strategy is to log to file for stdout?
Is there another common library or way to watch and stream those logs back ?
I can't seem to find anything in the JS API docs, although there seems to be ability to do advanced signaling, I'm still wondering how to handle standard input and output.
Regards.

Determine whether streaming is supported through the API or whether the existing file-logging guidance is the intended approach, then document the supported usage and any limitations.
