To enforce this, you can call the `setGracefulCleanup()` method:\n\n```javascript\nvar tmp = require('tmp');\n\ntmp.setGracefulCleanup();\n```\n\n## Options\n\nAll options are optional :)\n\n  * `mode`: the file mode to create with, it fallbacks to `0600` on file creation and `0700` on directory creation\n  * `prefix`: the optional prefix, fallbacks to `tmp-` if not provided\n  * `postfix`: the optional postfix, fallbacks to `.tmp` on file creation\n  * `template`: [`mkstemps`][3] like filename template, no default\n  * `dir`: the optional temporary directory, fallbacks to system default (guesses from environment)\n  * `tries`: how many times should the function try to get a unique filename before giving up, default `3`\n  * `keep`: signals that the temporary file or directory should not be deleted on exit, default is `false`, means delete\n  * `unsafeCleanup`: recursively removes the created temporary directory, even when it's not empty. default is `false`\n\n[1]: http://nodejs.org/\n[2]: https://github.com/bruce/node-temp\n[3]: http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man3/mkstemp.3.html\n",
