@raidendev that's a different package, it contains tools for working with MS Access databases – maccam94 Apr 23 '19 at 05:48

There's an npm module called why-is-node-running that can give you info like:
There are 4 known handle(s) keeping the process running and 0 unknown
Known handles:
# Timer
/Users/maf/dev/node_modules/why-is-node-running/example.js:6 - setInterval(function () {}, 1000)

For me the why-is-node-running package was not very useful since I had an infinite while loop.
I wish there was a tool that will detect infinite loop all around the project.
What solve for me the issue was to manually reverse some versions of my project and to manually re-add the code I deleted, until I found out what cause my application to hangs, as I said, a infinite while loop.
