Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

cluster-requiem

Enhacements for the cluster module in order to handle graceful shutdowns with jobs that aren't associated with a socket.

History

Node cluster modules garantees that all server sockets will be closed before exiting the process, but this doesn't extends to all other jobs that can't be interrupted. This makes the cluster module useless when combined with softwares like PM2 as long standing jobs that don't have a client requets associated with it will die when you reload the server.

This module solves this by adding trackers which holds the server up until all they finishes their jobs.

Usage

Install it

npm install --save cluster-requiem

Initialize and prepare servers

var http = require('http');
var cluster = require('cluster');
var requiem = require('cluster-requiem');

if (cluster.isMaster) {
	var worker = cluster.fork();
	
	setTimeout(function() {
		console.log('disconnecting', worker.id);
		worker.disconnect(function() {
			console.log('done');
		});
	}, 2000);
} else {
	var longJobThatCantBeInterrupted = function(callback) {
		setTimeout(function() {
			console.log('job done');
			callback();
		}, 10000);
	};

	requiem.initialize();

	requiem.on('begin', function() {
		console.log('grabs the violin')
	});

	var server = http.createServer(function(err, req) {
			req.writeHead(200);
			req.end('Hello world!');
	});

	requiem.track(function(callback) {
			longJobThatCantBeInterrupted(callback);
	});

	server.listen(8080);
	requiem.trackSocket(server);

	console.log('listening')
}

Note: You need to track server sockets in case of a graceful shutdown(PM2 for instance, sends the 'shutdown' event before trying to kill the process). If you don't do this the server will stil receive connections while it waits for all trackers to finish. Under high load this will potentially lead the server to never close, making PM2 kill long standing jobs as it can't handle they.
