(node:17804) MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 wakeup listeners added. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit

code

const server = new Hapi.Server();
server.connection({port: 3000});
...
server.register([{
...
}], (err) => {
    if (err) {
        throw err;
    }

        if (err) {
            throw err;
        }
        console.log(`Server running at : ${server.info.uri}`);
    });

server.route({
    method: 'POST',
    path: '/push',
    handler: function(request, reply) {
        ...
        var notification = new apn.Notification() ;
        notification.badge = count ;
        notification.sound = "default" ;
        notification.alert = message ;
        notification.topic = toping ;
        ...

Try setting setMaxListeners as,

process.setMaxListeners(0);

The EventEmitters tends to print a warning (by default) when more than 10 listeners are getting added for a particular event. This enables us to help finding memory leaks. However, not all events should be limited to just 10 listeners. The emitter.setMaxListeners() method allows the limit to be modified for this specific EventEmitter instance. The value can be set to Infinity (or 0) to indicate an unlimited number of listeners.

Hope this helps!.

Can you please update your post with your complete code where you have your `emitter` declaration (like `const emitter = new EventEmitter()`)? – David R May 11 '17 at 06:03
I didn't declarate 'emitter'. So if I declarate 'emitter' in handler and using emitter.setMaxListeners() ? – ATHeart May 11 '17 at 06:11
Yup.. Please add `const emitter = new EventEmitter();emitter.setMaxListeners(0);` in your code. – David R May 11 '17 at 06:15
Are you sure? emitter.setMaxListeners(0) will add infinite listeners – Mansuu.... Aug 17 '18 at 08:54

Did you shutdown your connection to the APNs provider using the following,

apnProvider.shutdown();

After sending notification was completed.
