• Adds some service management functionality to the application. See return specification for documentation.

    WARNING: THIS MODULE MAY PRODUCE SIDE-EFFECTS. If config.svc.handleShutdown is true, it will add a signal handler to the process that will run all registered shutdown tasks and call process.exit(0) when the process receives a SIGINT or SIGTERM signal.

    Available Config Options

    • config.svc.initializationTimeoutMs - A number in milliseconds indicating how long to wait before killing the service. You application should call deps.svc.declareReady() when everything has been initialized. If this function is not called before config.svc.initializationTimeoutMs, the service is killed.
    • config.svc.handleShutdown - Whether or not to handle shutdown on SIGINT and SIGTERM. Default: false. If true, registers a signal handler that will run all registered shutdown tasks and call process.exit(0) when the process receives a SIGINT or SIGTERM signal.

    Provided Dependencies

    • svc.whenReady - A promise that can be awaited by various dependents. When this promise resolves, it means all dependencies have loaded successfully and the servie is ready to work.
    • svc.declareReady - A function used to declare that the service is ready. This should be called when all dependencies have been initialized successfully, all message and request handlers have been registered, all cronjobs started, etc.
    • svc.onShutdown - Register a shutdown task, such as disconnecting from a database or terminating outstanding HTTP requests. These tasks will be run when the process receives a SIGINT or SIGTERM signal.

    Parameters

    Returns WeenieServiceManager
