How to forcibly keep a Node.js process from terminating?

Question

TL;DR

What is the best way to forcibly keep a Node.js process running, i.e., keep its event loop from running empty and hence keeping the process from terminating?

Answer 1

I'll throw another hack into the mix. Here's how to do it with Promise:

new Promise(_ => null);

Throw that at the bottom of your .js file and it should run forever.
