I'm using child_process
to spawn a child process and get return PID from it. I need to manage this child process by its PID. Below is my code:
const childProcess = require('child_process');
let options = ['/c', arg1, arg2];
const myProcess = childProcess.spawn('cmd.exe', options, {
detached: false,
shell: false
});
let pid = myProcess.pid;
During run time, I want to use PID to validate independently from outside if the process is running or not (finished / killed). I want to know how to do this and what is the best way to make this validation in Nodejs?. I'm running application in Windows environment.
Any suggestion is appreciated, thanks.
