Description

If you work with application that occupies some port and sometimes hangs up - you definitely should start using kill-process-on-port. It shows you a prompt in console, then you choose to either kill and application occupying port or not. Safe and sound!

Installation

npm i kill-process-on-port

Features

• TypeScript with documentation in comments.
• Both Windows and Linux support. Uses built-in commands: netstat on Windows and fuser on Linux.
• Prompts for confirmation before killing process (by inquirer).

Usage

import {
    killProcessOnPort,
} from 'kill-process-on-port';

(async () => {

    await killProcessOnPort(3000).catch((err) => {
        console.log(err);
    });

})();
