Why a Supervisor Bridge?
Not every process you depend on is a clean OTP gen_server. Sometimes you must supervise a plain Erlang process, a port, or a third-party subsystem. The supervisor_bridge behaviour lets such a process appear as a normal child in a supervision tree.
The Problem It Solves
A standard supervisor only knows how to start, stop and restart OTP-compliant children. A raw process started with spawn_link does not respond to OTP shutdown protocols. The bridge translates between the two worlds.
Behaviour Callbacks
A supervisor_bridge module implements two callbacks:
init/1starts the real subsystem and returns its pidterminate/2cleanly shuts the subsystem down
Skeleton Module
The bridge is started like a supervisor but behaves like a worker to its parent.
-module(legacy_bridge).
-behaviour(supervisor_bridge).
-export([start_link/0, init/1, terminate/2]).
start_link() ->
supervisor_bridge:start_link({local, ?MODULE}, ?MODULE, []).Implementing init/1
init/1 must start and link the external process, then return {ok, Pid, State}. If start fails, return {error, Reason}.
init([]) ->
case legacy_server:start() of
{ok, Pid} -> {ok, Pid, Pid};
Error -> Error
end.Implementing terminate/2
When the bridge is asked to shut down, it calls terminate/2 so you can stop the subsystem gracefully.
terminate(_Reason, Pid) ->
legacy_server:stop(Pid),
ok.Placing the Bridge in a Tree
To its parent supervisor, the bridge is just another child spec with type => worker.
ChildSpec = #{id => legacy,
start => {legacy_bridge, start_link, []},
restart => permanent,
type => worker}.Failure Propagation
Because the bridge links to the external process, a crash there exits the bridge, which the parent supervisor sees as a normal worker crash and restarts according to its strategy.
Mixed Hierarchies
A real system mixes gen_server workers, sub-supervisors, and bridges. The bridge lets legacy or foreign code participate without weakening the OTP guarantees of the rest of the tree.
When NOT to Use a Bridge
If you can wrap the subsystem in a proper gen_server, prefer that — it gives you full OTP introspection. Reserve the bridge for code you cannot rewrite or that has its own process lifecycle.
Debugging Bridged Subsystems
Because the inner process is not OTP, tools like sys:get_state/1 will not reach it. Add logging inside the subsystem and rely on the bridge state to track the inner pid.
Quick Check
Test your understanding of supervisor bridges.
Recap
You learned to integrate foreign processes into supervision trees:
supervisor_bridgewraps non-OTP subsystemsinit/1starts and links the subsystem;terminate/2stops it- It appears as a worker child to its parent supervisor
- Crashes propagate so normal restart strategies apply
- Prefer a real gen_server when you control the code
