spire.officejs-service-arm

The spire.officejs-service-arm package provides the Spire.OfficeJS backend server service for Linux (ARM) platforms. It is the server-side companion to the Spire.OfficeJS front-end library, enabling document processing capabilities such as collaborative editing and persistent storage on ARM-based Linux systems (e.g., Raspberry Pi, AWS Graviton, Apple Silicon Linux VMs).

What's Included

• Native Server Binary — officeserver-linux, the core Office document server compiled for Linux ARM
• SQLite Native Addon — node_sqlite3.node for local data persistence
• Default Configuration — pre-configured server settings (port, storage, logging, database, security, etc.)
• Auto-Config Setup — a postinstall script that copies the default configuration to your project root as spire.officejs-server-config.json

Installation

npm install spire.officejs-service-arm

During installation, the postinstall script will automatically copy a default server configuration file (spire.officejs-server-config.json) to your project root. If the file already exists, it will not be overwritten — this prevents accidental overwrites of your custom configuration.

Platform Support

| Platform | Architecture | Package | |----------|-------------|---------| | Windows | x64 | spire.officejs-service-win | | Linux | x64 | spire.officejs-service-linux | | Linux | ARM | spire.officejs-service-arm |

Running the Server: Development vs Production

The run_servers.sh script — the runtime environment is entirely controlled by the spire.officejs-server-config.json configuration file. The workflow for both environments is: configure first, then run.

Development Environment

Step 1 — Prepare the development config

Edit spire.officejs-server-config.json in your project root．

Step 2 — Start the server

Run your project　in development environment．

Step 3 — Stop the server

stop your project　in development environment．

Production Environment

Step 1 — Prepare the production config

Before building, edit spire.officejs-server-config.json in your project root and ensure the following production settings are properly configured:

Step 2 — Start the server

cd /dist/spire.officejs/service

./run_servers.sh start

Step 3 — Stop the server

cd /dist/spire.officejs/service

./run_servers.sh stop
