cfork

cluster fork and restart easy way.

• Easy fork with worker file path
• Handle worker restart, even it was exit unexpected.
• Auto error log process uncaughtException event

Install

$ npm install cfork --save

Usage

Example

const cfork = require('cfork');
const util = require('util');

const clusterWorker = cfork({
  exec: '/your/app/worker.js',
  // slaves: ['/your/app/slave.js'],
  // count: require('os').cpus().length,
}).on('fork', worker => {
    console.warn('[%s] [worker:%d] new worker start', Date(), worker.process.pid);
  })
  .on('disconnect', worker => {
    console.warn('[%s] [master:%s] wroker:%s disconnect, exitedAfterDisconnect: %s, state: %s.',
      Date(), process.pid, worker.process.pid, worker.exitedAfterDisconnect, worker.state);
  })
  .on('exit', (worker, code, signal) => {
    const exitCode = worker.process.exitCode;
    const err = new Error(util.format('worker %s died (code: %s, signal: %s, exitedAfterDisconnect: %s, state: %s)',
      worker.process.pid, exitCode, signal, worker.exitedAfterDisconnect, worker.state));
    err.name = 'WorkerDiedError';
    console.error('[%s] [master:%s] wroker exit: %s', Date(), process.pid, err.stack);
  })
  // if you do not listen to this event
  // cfork will output this message to stderr
  .on('unexpectedExit', (worker, code, signal) => {
    // logger what you want
  })
  // emit when reach refork times limit
  .on('reachReforkLimit', () => {
    // do what you want
  });

// if you do not listen to this event
// cfork will listen it and output the error message to stderr
process.on('uncaughtException', err => {
  // do what you want
});

// if you want to dynamically disable refork, you can call the setDisableRefork, priority over the refork parameter
cfork.setDisableRefork(clusterWorker, true);

Options

• exec : exec file path
• slaves : slave process config
• args : exec arguments
• count : fork worker nums, default is os.cpus().length
• refork : refork when worker disconnect or unexpected exit, default is true
• limit: limit refork times within the duration, default is 60
• duration: default is 60000, one minute (so, the refork times < limit / duration)
• autoCoverage: auto fork with istanbul when running_under_istanbul env set, default is false
• env: attach some environment variable key-value pairs to the worker / slave process, default to an empty object.
• windowsHide: Hide the forked processes console window that would normally be created on Windows systems, default to false.
• serialization: Specify the kind of serialization used for sending messages between processes. Possible values are 'json' and 'advanced'. See Advanced serialization for child_process for more details. Default: false.
