Stop node.js program from command line

Question

I have a simple TCP server that listens on a port.

var net = require(\"net\");

var server = net.createServer(function(socket) {
    socket.end(\"Hello!\\n\"         


        

Answer 1

Or alternatively you can do all of these in one line:

kill -9 $(ps aux | grep '\snode\s' | awk '{print $2}')

You can replace node inside '\snode\s' with any other process name.
