The purpose

smartipc makes it easy to spawn tasks into subprocesses without loosing control over what those processes do. You can transparently call functions and expect returned data using promises.

Usage

Master.ts:

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)
})

worker.ts
