Kill detached nodemon node.js process by node process port

gistfile1.md

When my VS code remote disconnects and looses my nodemon terminal after window reload, I always spend 3-4 minutes googling how to quickly kill the nodemonized process.

1. Get pid by port (2355 in my case):

sudo lsof -n -i :2355

if you kill the found PID it won't help since nodemon will restart it. So, get PID from output (63073 in my case and..

2. Now find the parent of this process (nodemon):

ps -o ppid= -p 63073

3. Make sure this is the correct PID of nodemon (50461 was the output of the previous command):

ps aux | grep 50461

4. Kill nodemon kill 50461
