# loud-rejection [](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/loud-rejection) [](https://coveralls.io/github/sindresorhus/loud-rejection?branch=master)

> Make unhandled promise rejections fail loudly instead of the default [silent fail](https://gist.github.com/benjamingr/0237932cee84712951a2)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
By default, promises fail silently if you don't attach a `.catch()` handler to them.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Use this in top-level things like tests, CLI tools, apps, etc, **but not in reusable modules.**<br>
 | 
						|
Not needed in the browser as unhandled promises are shown in the console.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Install
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ npm install --save loud-rejection
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Usage
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
const loudRejection = require('loud-rejection');
 | 
						|
const promiseFn = require('promise-fn');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
// Install the unhandledRejection listeners
 | 
						|
loudRejection();
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
promiseFn();
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Without this module it's more verbose and you might even miss some that will fail silently:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
const promiseFn = require('promise-fn');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
function error(err) {
 | 
						|
	console.error(err.stack);
 | 
						|
	process.exit(1);
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
promiseFn().catch(error);
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Register script
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Alternatively to the above, you may simply require `loud-rejection/register` and the unhandledRejection listener will be automagically installed for you.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This is handy for ES2015 imports:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
import 'loud-rejection/register';
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

						|
