NodeJS listen to signal from bash script on some event

Question

Is there any way to nodejs listening for some way of signal that is generated by a bash script on some event random in time?

How can I generate that signal in bash script and listening on nodejs?

Any help is welcome Regards

Answer 1

A node.js process can listen for any POSIX signal. Personally, I use the SIGUSR1 event. Use SIGUSR2.

See http://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/process.html#signal_Events for more info.
