Add check before running npm_start (cross platform) #56

Correct way of checking if something is running on port 3000 and then ..etc

layik commented 5 years ago

On Linux we can get/kill ps ID in various ways. This is not so easy on Windows, once we know how this can be done, then perhaps we could revisit this ticket. Adding such a feature must be available for both.

And...to start with, we could just leave this to the user. Everytime subsequent calls are made to npm_start user can just see that "something is already running" message from node.

Next commit should close this ticket.
