Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
This issue exists in the latest npm version
- I am using the latest npm
Current Behavior
On Windows, if Node.js app handles SIGINT, npm exits before the Node app does:
delay.mjs:
process.on('SIGINT', () => {
console.log("ctrl+c pressed");
});
console.log("sleeping...");
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 5000));
console.log("exiting gracefully");package.js:
{
"name": "ctrl-c",
"main": "delay.mjs",
"scripts": {
"start": "node delay.mjs"
}
}Running it:
PS C:\temp\ctrl-c> npm start
> start
> node delay.mjs
sleeping...
ctrl+c pressed
PS C:\temp\ctrl-c> exiting gracefully
PS C:\temp\ctrl-c>
Note how the Node app still writes to the console after npm has terminated.
Expected Behavior
The desired behavior is as on Linux, where npm exits only when the Node app has ended.
