kill-dash-nine

Ye olde kill(3) wrapped in a native node module.

KILL DASH NINE,

No more CPU time.

I run KILL DASH NINE,

And your process is mine.

I run KILL DASH NINE,

'Cause it's MY time to shine

So don't step outta line or else it's

KILL DASH NINE!

API

var kill = require('kill')

kill(pid, signal = 'SIGTERM')

Kill the process with the given PID.

Returns undefined.

If the arguments are of the wrong types, an appropriate TypeError will be thrown.

If kill(3) returns an error, an error annotated with syscall, code, errno and pid will be thrown. Commonly, it'll return the codes EPERM (permission denied) and ESRCH (no such process).
