    exit

    History
    Attributes
    code:number
    The exit code, if it exited normally.
    signal:string
    The name of the signal (e.g. 'SIGHUP') that caused the process to be killed.

    When any of the workers die the cluster module will emit the 'exit' event.

    This can be used to restart the worker by calling .fork() again.

    cluster.on('exit', (worker, code, signal) => {
      console.log('worker %d died (%s). restarting...',
                  worker.process.pid, signal || code);
      cluster.fork();
    });
