In my server.js file i'm trying to log errors and not cause them to crash the app, this is the code im using
const server = app.listen(3000, () =>
console.log('Server Up and running')
);
process.on('unhandledRejection', (err, promise) => {
console.log(`Error: ${err}`);
server.close(() => process.exit(1));
})
when i produce an error instead of it logging the error and closing the server it just logs the error how it normally would and causes the app to crash. If you need more info let me know. Sorry if this is a dumb question
I suppose you know the difference between Unhandled Rejection and Uncaught Exception.
it just logs the error how it normally would
Because you're console logging the same error object!
Also don't use process.exit(). Because you might lose your logs. read more
Express docs explained how to do graceful shutdown, you can use similar approach.
