The process.kill( pid[,signal] ) is an inbuilt method of node.js which sends a signal to the process, pid (which is the process id) and signal is in the string format that is the signal to send....

In this article, we will see how to exit in NodeJS application. There are different types of methods to exit in Nodejs application, here we have discussed the following four methods....

Signals are a POSIX (The Portable Operating System Interface) intercommunication system. These events will be emitted when Node receives signal events. In order to notify that an event has occurred, a notification is sent....

The process is the global object in Node.js that keeps track of and contains all the information of the particular node.js process that is executing at a particular time on the machine....

There are two ways that are generally used to terminate a Node.js program which is using process.exit() or process.exitCode variable. In this post, we have discussed the process. exit code variable. It is an integer that represents the code passed to the process.exit() function or when the process exits on its own. It allows the Node.js program to exit naturally and avoids the Node program to do additional work around event loop scheduling, and it is much safer than passing exit code to process.exit()....

A process object is a global object, so it can be accessed from anywhere. As it is a predefined library, so we don’t have to download it to our system globally....

The process.stderr is an inbuilt application programming interface of class Process within process module which is used to returns a stream connected to stderr....

The process.report.writeReport() method writes a diagnostic report to a file. If filename is not provided, the default filename includes the date, time, PID, and a sequence number. The report’s JavaScript stack trace is taken from err, if present....

The process.stderr.fd is an inbuilt application programming interface of class Process within process module which is used to returns the value of underlying file descriptor of process.stderr....

The process.report is an object whose methods are used to generate diagnostic reports for the current process. The signal used to trigger the creation of a diagnostic report. Defaults to ‘SIGUSR2’....

The process.report is an object whose methods are used to generate diagnostic reports for the current process. The process.report.compact write reports in a compact format, single-line JSON, more easily consumable by log processing systems than the default multi-line format designed for human consumption....

The process object is a global that provides information about, and control over, the current Node.js process. As a global, it is always available to Node.js applications without using require(). It can also be explicitly accessed using require() as shown below:...
