Usage

After configuring and starting server you can call this function:

let info = new startInfo(server);
info.onError(); // manage start error
info.onListening(); // display server info

Full example using Express

...
let express = require("express");
let http = require('http');
let StartInfo = require('node-startinfo');
...

let app = express();
let port = process.env.PORT || 3000;
app.set("port", port);
...

let server = http.createServer(app);
server.listen(port);

// this is the code!
let info = new StartInfo(server);
info.onError(); // manage start error
info.onListening(); // display info in console

// TYPESCRIPT
import * as express from "express";
import * as http from "http";
import {StartInfo} from "node-startinfo";

let debug = require("debug")("startinfo:server");

let app: express.Express = express();
let port: number = process.env.PORT || 3000;
app.set("port", port);

export let server: http.Server = http.createServer(app);
server.listen(port);


let info: StartInfo = new StartInfo(server);
info.onError();
info.onListening();


app.get("/", (req: express.Request, res: express.Response) => {
    res.send("Hello World!");
});
