Quitting

There are three similar, but slightly different, functions provided for when you want to exit a script.

exit()

The exit() function exits the current process. It is a trivial wrapper around process.exit().

The first argument is an exit code (0 for a sucessful exit, any other value to indicate an exceptional condition). The second optional argument can be a message to display before exiting.

import { exit } from '@abw/badger'

exit(0, 'Goodbye')

quit()

The quit() function is a wrapper around the exit() function that sets the exit code to 0 to indicate successful termination.

import { quit } from '@abw/badger'

quit('Goodbye')

abort()

The abort() function is a wrapper around the exit() function that sets the exit code to 1 to indicate an error condition.

import { abort } from '@abw/badger'

abort('Big plate of failed')
