GitHub - KidsContents/processhost: A ridiculously simple process host for Node.js

Its almost too simple to be of use. I've extracted it from Anvil because I kept wanting something that worked like Anvil's processhost. So ... yeah.

var processHost = require( "processhost" )();

processHost.startProcess( <processAlias>, <configuration> );

processHost.stopProcess( <processAlias> );

{
	"cwd": "", // defaults to current working directory
	"command": "", // this will probably be "node"
	"args": [], // the command line args for the process, i.e. your script
	"killSignal": "" | [ "" ], // not required, defaults to "SIGTERM", it can be multiple
	"stdio": "inherit" | "ignore" // determines if the process will write to the console
	"env": {} // defaults to the process.env, should be simple hash
}

You can subscribed to the following process level events off the process host.
