## Usage
Server:
```typescript
import {Ipcserver} from 'smartipc'
import * as q from 'q'
**Master.ts:**
let myIpcserver = new Ipcserver({
appspace: 'mymodule'
```javascript
import * as smartipc from 'smartipc'
smartipc.setBasePathArg(__dirname) // if you want to avoid typings out full paths every time
let myThread = new smartipc.Thread('worker')
myThread.send('someMessageOrObject').then(messageResponse => {
console.log(messageResponse)
})
// The subprocess js file cannot have any cli arguments
// since this mechanism is used by IpcServer to setup the connection
myIpcServer.spawnProcess('./myFile','mySubProcessNameAlias') // nameAlias identifies the subprocess and will prefix any logs from child Process
let someData = {
key1: 'value1',
key2: 'value2'
}
myIpcServer.call('mySubProcessNameAlias','myAwesomeFunction',someData).then(someAnswerData => {
console.log(someAnswerData.key1)
})
```
Client:
```typescript
import { Ipcclient } from './smartipc'
import * as q from 'q'
**worker.ts**
let localIpc = new Ipcclient() // gets its connection information automatically using CLI args internally
```javascript
let myAwesomeFunction = (dataArg) => {
let done = plugins.q.defer()
console.log('awesome') // this will log transparently in the same console stream as the host process
let someAnswerData = {key1: 'this is an answer'}
done.resolve(someAnswerData)
return done.promise
}
localIpc.register([myAwesomeFunction])
```
