hapi plugin for taking a process dump and cleaning up after an uncaught exception

Current Version Build Status

Lead Maintainer: Colin Ihrig

Table of Contents

Overview

When an uncaughtException is encountered a heap dump will be output to the plugin folder. A log file is also written containing the exception details. After this is complete the process will exit with a failure code. Heap dumps can also be taken at arbitrary times by sending a SIGUSR1 signal to the server process.

Example

The following example shows how to register and configure poop. In this example, an uncaught exception is thrown after poop is registered. This will trigger a heap dump and poop.log file to be created.

'use strict';
var Path = require('path');
var Hapi = require('hapi');
var Poop = require('poop');
var server = new Hapi.Server();
 
server.register({
    register: Poop,
    options: {
        logPath: Path.join(__dirname, 'poop.log')
    }
}, function () {
 
    throw new Error('uncaught');
});

Settings

The following options are available when configuring poop.

heapdumpFolder
