like-terminable

Handle process, cluster, servers and req/res for graceful exit

Supports cluster, process events, SIGTERM, SIGINT, SIGHUP, etc.
server.close() and keep-alive done right at socket level.

const terminable = require('like-terminable')
const express = require('express')

const app = express()

app.get('/', function (req, res) {
  res.send('Hello World!')
})

const server = app.listen(3000, function () {
  terminable.add(server) // always add it after 'listening' event
})

console.log('Press CTRL+C to clean up the process, twice forces SIGINT')

Install

npm i like-terminable

Examples

'cleanup' event

app.get('/long-polling', function (req, res) {
  const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => {
    res.send('Hello World!')
  }, 3000)

  terminable.find(res).once('cleanup', function () {
    clearTimeout(timeoutId)
    res.end()
  })
})

Note: 'cleanup' event could be emitted multiple times,
be aware of on('cleanup', ..) vs once('cleanup', ..).

'cleanup' state

app.get('/long-processing', function (req, res) {
  const state = terminable.find(res)

  while (true) {
    if (state.terminated) {
      res.end()
      return
    }

    if (Math.random() > 0.9999) {
      res.json({ processed: true })
      return
    }
  }
})

How to close the server without terminating the process?

const server = app.listen(3000, function () {
  const state = terminable.add(server)

  // ie. close the server and clean up all the resources under server:
  state.cleanup()
})

How to manually clean up the process?

const server = app.listen(3000, function () {
  terminable.add(server)

  // ie. clean up all the resources under process after 3 seconds
  setTimeout(function () {
    terminable.cleanup()
  }, 3000)
})
