Human-friendly process signals.

This is a map of known process signals with some information about each signal.

Unlike os.constants.signals this includes:

• human-friendly descriptions
• default actions, including whether they can be prevented
• whether the signal is supported by the current OS

Hire me

Please reach out if you're looking for a Node.js API or CLI engineer (10 years of experience). Most recently I have been Netlify Build's and Netlify Plugins' technical lead for 2.5 years. I am available for full-time remote positions in either US or EU time zones.

Example

import { signalsByName, signalsByNumber } from 'human-signals'

console.log(signalsByName.SIGINT)
// {
//   name: 'SIGINT',
//   number: 2,
//   description: 'User interruption with CTRL-C',
//   supported: true,
//   action: 'terminate',
//   forced: false,
//   standard: 'ansi'
// }

console.log(signalsByNumber[8])
// {
//   name: 'SIGFPE',
//   number: 8,
//   description: 'Floating point arithmetic error',
//   supported: true,
//   action: 'core',
//   forced: false,
//   standard: 'ansi'
// }

Install

npm install human-signals

This package works in Node.js >=14.18.0.

This is an ES module. It must be loaded using an import or import() statement, not require(). If TypeScript is used, it must be configured to output ES modules, not CommonJS.

Usage

signalsByName

Type: object

Object whose keys are signal names and values are signal objects.

signalsByNumber

Type: object

Object whose keys are signal numbers and values are signal objects.

signal

Type: object

Signal object with the following properties.

name

Type: string

Standard name of the signal, for example 'SIGINT'.

number

Enum: 'terminate', 'core', 'ignore', 'pause', 'unpause'
