I have built something similar https://gitlab.com/runsvjs/runsv. My 2 cents: * On "uncaughtexception" trying to gracefully shutdown is not the recomended practice. See https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v16.x/docs/api/process.html#event-uncaughtexception * When you call (http) server.close(), it stops the server from accepting new connections, but it keeps the existing connections open indefinitely. You can keep an array of connections to close them later. This is what modules like http-terminator, http-graceful-shutdown or http-close do for you.
