Once a replacement API has been\nfinalized, this module will be fully deprecated. Most developers should\n<strong>not</strong> have cause to use this module. Users who absolutely must have\nthe functionality that domains provide may rely on it for the time being\nbut should expect to have to migrate to a different solution\nin the future.</p>\n<p>Domains provide a way to handle multiple different IO operations as a\nsingle group. If any of the event emitters or callbacks registered to a\ndomain emit an <code>'error'</code> event, or throw an error, then the domain object\nwill be notified, rather than losing the context of the error in the\n<code>process.on('uncaughtException')</code> handler, or causing the program to\nexit immediately with an error code.</p>",

"desc": "<p>Domain error handlers are not a substitute for closing down a\nprocess when an error occurs.</p>\n<p>By the very nature of how <a href=\"https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/throw\"><code>throw</code></a> works in JavaScript, there is almost\nnever any way to safely \"pick up where it left off\", without leaking\nreferences, or creating some other sort of undefined brittle state.</p>\n<p>The safest way to respond to a thrown error is to shut down the\nprocess. Of course, in a normal web server, there may be many\nopen connections, and it is not reasonable to abruptly shut those down\nbecause an error was triggered by someone else.</p>\n<p>The better approach is to send an error response to the request that\ntriggered the error, while letting the others finish in their normal\ntime, and stop listening for new requests in that worker.</p>\n<p>In this way, <code>domain</code> usage goes hand-in-hand with the cluster module,\nsince the master process can fork a new worker when a worker\nencounters an error. For Node.js programs that scale to multiple\nmachines, the terminating proxy or service registry can take note of\nthe failure, and react accordingly.</p>\n<p>For example, this is not a good idea:</p>\n<pre><code class=\"language-js\">// XXX WARNING! BAD IDEA!\n\nconst d = require('domain').create();\nd.on('error', (er) => {\n // The error won't crash the process, but what it does is worse!\n // Though we've prevented abrupt process restarting, we are leaking\n // resources like crazy if this ever happens.\n // This is no better than process.on('uncaughtException')!\n console.log(`error, but oh well ${er.message}`);\n});\nd.run(() => {\n require('http').createServer((req, res) => {\n handleRequest(req, res);\n }).listen(PORT);\n});\n</code></pre>\n<p>By using the context of a domain, and the resilience of separating our\nprogram into multiple worker processes, we can react more\nappropriately, and handle errors with much greater safety.</p>\n<pre><code class=\"language-js\">// Much better!\n\nconst cluster = require('cluster');\nconst PORT = +process.env.PORT || 1337;\n\nif (cluster.isMaster) {\n // A more realistic scenario would have more than 2 workers,\n // and perhaps not put the master and worker in the same file.\n //\n // It is also possible to get a bit fancier about logging, and\n // implement whatever custom logic is needed to prevent DoS\n // attacks and other bad behavior.\n //\n // See the options in the cluster documentation.\n //\n // The important thing is that the master does very little,\n // increasing our resilience to unexpected errors.\n\n cluster.fork();\n cluster.fork();\n\n cluster.on('disconnect', (worker) => {\n console.error('disconnect!');\n cluster.fork();\n });\n\n} else {\n // the worker\n //\n // This is where we put our bugs!\n\n const domain = require('domain');\n\n // See the cluster documentation for more details about using\n // worker processes to serve requests. How it works, caveats, etc.\n\n const server = require('http').createServer((req, res) => {\n const d = domain.create();\n d.on('error', (er) => {\n console.error(`error ${er.stack}`);\n\n // We're in dangerous territory!\n // By definition, something unexpected occurred,\n // which we probably didn't want.\n // Anything can happen now! Be very careful!\n\n try {\n // Make sure we close down within 30 seconds\n const killtimer = setTimeout(() => {\n process.exit(1);\n }, 30000);\n // But don't keep the process open just for that!\n killtimer.unref();\n\n // Stop taking new requests.\n server.close();\n\n // Let the master know we're dead. This will trigger a\n // 'disconnect' in the cluster master, and then it will fork\n // a new worker.\n cluster.worker.disconnect();\n\n // Try to send an error to the request that triggered the problem\n res.statusCode = 500;\n res.setHeader('content-type', 'text/plain');\n res.end('Oops, there was a problem!\\n');\n } catch (er2) {\n // Oh well, not much we can do at this point.\n console.error(`Error sending 500! ${er2.stack}`);\n }\n });\n\n // Because req and res were created before this domain existed,\n // we need to explicitly add them.\n // See the explanation of implicit vs explicit binding below.\n d.add(req);\n d.add(res);\n\n // Now run the handler function in the domain.\n d.run(() => {\n handleRequest(req, res);\n });\n });\n server.listen(PORT);\n}\n\n// This part is not important. Just an example routing thing.\n// Put fancy application logic here.\nfunction handleRequest(req, res) {\n switch (req.url) {\n case '/error':\n // We do some async stuff, and then...\n setTimeout(() => {\n // Whoops!\n flerb.bark();\n }, timeout);\n break;\n default:\n res.end('ok');\n }\n}\n</code></pre>"
