What is http-shutdown?

The http-shutdown npm package extends the standard Node.js HTTP server with a shutdown method. This allows you to gracefully shut down the server, ensuring that all existing connections are served before the server is closed.

What are http-shutdown's main functionalities?

Graceful Shutdown

This feature allows you to add a shutdown method to your HTTP server instance. When called, it will not accept new connections and will wait for all existing connections to end before shutting down the server.

const http = require('http');
const enableShutdown = require('http-shutdown');

const server = enableShutdown(http.createServer((req, res) => {
  res.writeHead(200);
  res.end('Hello World!');
}));

server.listen(3000);

// Shutdown the server after 10 seconds
setTimeout(() => {
  server.shutdown(() => {
    console.log('Server is gracefully shut down.');
  });
}, 10000);
