@silicon-soldier/darwin-libproc

High-level interface over darwin's libproc library.

Usage

pidPath

import libproc from "@silicon-soldier/darwin-libproc";

// Current process (immune to `process.execPath` manipulation)
console.info(libproc.pidPath(process.pid));
// /opt/homebrew/Cellar/node@16/16.19.1/bin/node

// Parent process
console.info(libproc.pidPath(process.ppid));
// /bin/zsh

// PID 1 (launchd)
console.info(libproc.pidPath(1));
// /sbin/launchd
