Redirecting stdout to file nodejs

Question

I\'ve created:

var access = fs.createWriteStream(\'/var/log/node/api.access.log\', { flags: \'w\' });

Then piped:

process.s         


        

Answer 1

@user3173842 for the reply on I solved this problem the following way:

var access = fs.createWriteStream('/var/log/node/api.access.log');
process.stdout.write = process.stderr.write = access.write.bind(access);

you do understand that process.stdout continues after process.on('exit') and therefore the fs.WriteStream closes after with process.stdout, according to https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/7606

so now the question remains, if the developer desired to have the fs.Writestream.write() return to its normal functionality and when fs.Writestream.end is called the writestream closes. How would the developer go about doing this I did

a_l = asyncify_listener
p_std_stream_m is a process stream manager object

p_std_stream_m.std_info.p_stdout_write = process.stdout.write   

process.stdout.write = w_stream.write.bind(w_stream)

process.once('beforeExit', a_l(   p_std_stream_m.handler,process.stdout,w_stream   )   )       

     where in the 'beforeExit' event listener I did
process.stdout.write = p_std_stream_m.std_info.p_stdout_write

w_stream.end()

It works and you use the once method because the process.stdout seems to do a lot of work at this time. Is this good practice, would you do this or what would you do in this situation anyone can feel free to reply.
