@atton16/cluster-lock

A lock implementation for both single-thread and clustered Node.JS environment.

This is the simple lock implementation and might not be suitable for production application.

Installation

npm install @atton16/cluster-lock

Usage

Single Process

import { Lock } from '@atton16/cluster-lock';

const lock = new Lock('read-car');

lock.acquire().then(() => {
  console.log('I can now read car!');
  lock.release();
});

Cluster

import cluter from 'cluster';
import { Lock } from '@atton16/cluster-lock';

if (cluster.isMaster) {
  const lock = new Lock('read-car'); // master lock instance is required
  cluster.fork();  // worker 1
  cluster.fork();  // worker 2
  // NOTE: master process can also acquire lock
  lock.acquire().then(() => {
    console.log('I can now read car!');
    lock.release();
  });
} else {
  const lock = new Lock('read-car');

  lock.acquire().then(() => {
    console.log('I can now read car!');
    lock.release();
  });
}

Limitations

  1. Master lock instance is required in cluster mode.
  2. Same-name lock is supported in worker process only (which runs in cluster mode).
