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);
    });

})();
