Nodejs app not closing when SSH session closed from the other host
This is a bit of an odd one but hopefully I can explain it.
I have a package that uses SSH2 (https://github.com/mscdex/ssh2-streams) to make an SSH shell session to run commands on a host.
(https://github.com/cmp-202/persistent-shell)
Normal use is closing the connection using stream.close().
In this case the shell session stream is closed and then the SSH connection is closed and the app exits returning to the terminal command prompt.
If I run an 'exit' command so the session logs out from the host the debug indicates the stream closes and the connection closes. The problem is the app doesn't close and doesn't return to the terminal command prompt.
:exit command run
: exiting
: data event
exit
logout
: Stream.finish
: Stream.close
: Connection.close
Closed
[sits here waiting]
I have to use ctrl-c to terminate it. I have tried closing the stream from the app side as well but that made no difference or I got an error which doesn't surprise me given it may have already closed.
The question is how to run the 'exit' command and have to app close as it does when the stream.close() method is used. Bit stumped as to where it is left waiting.
