const { register, unregister } = require('on-exit-leak-free')
const assert = require('assert')

function setup () {
  // This object can be safely garbage collected,
  // and the resulting shutdown function will not be called.
  // There are no leaks.
  const obj = { foo: 'bar' }
  register(obj, shutdown)
  // use registerBeforeExit(obj, shutdown) to execute the function only
  // on beforeExit
  // call unregister(obj) to remove
}

let shutdownCalled = false

// Please make sure that the function passed to register()
// does not create a closure around unnecessary objects.
function shutdown (obj, eventName) {
  console.log(eventName) // beforeExit
  shutdownCalled = true
  assert.strictEqual(obj.foo, 'bar')
}
