I would like to make it so that ChildProcess.prototype.kill() reaps all
children and is platform independent. However I cannot seem to find access
to the ChildProcess constructor without actually instantiating it.
Require('child_process') gives only helper constructors like spawn and
exec, not actual constructors. Is there something I am missing here?
cp = require('child_process')
switch (process.platform) {
case 'win32':
ChildProcess = cp.spawn('cmd').constructor;
ChildProcess.prototype.kill = function() {
cp.exec("taskkill /F /T /PID " + this.pid, function(error, stdout,
stderr) {
if (error) {
throw error;
}
});
};
spawn = function(command, commandline) {
cp.spawn('cmd', ['/C', command].concat(commandline));
};
break;
default:
ChildProcess = cp.spawn('ls').constructor;
ChildProcess.prototype.kill = function() {
cp.exec("kill -TERM -" + this.pid, function(error, stdout, stderr) {
if (error) {
throw error;
}
});
spawn = function(command, commandline) {
cp.spawn(command, commandline, {
detach: true
});
};
};
