Cross-platform utility to locate and terminate processes binding specified network ports. Designed for reliability and speed in development and automation workflows. Features dynamic PID deduplication.
## Usage
For runnable integration tests, refer to `tests/`.
```rust
use kill_port::kill;
fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
// Terminate all processes listening on port 8080
kill(8080)?;
Ok(())
}
```
## Features
- **Robust PID Deduplication**: Uses a dynamically resized list for process deduplication, handling an arbitrary number of listeners without capacity limits.
- **Graceful Escalation**: Sends `SIGTERM` initially on Unix systems, upgrading to `SIGKILL` after 10 attempts. Executes process tree termination on Windows.
- **Self Exclusion**: Excludes the current process PID automatically to prevent self-termination.
## Design
1. **Discovery**: Queries active network listeners using the `listeners` crate.
2. **Filtering**: Deduplicates process PIDs using a dynamic list, filtering out the host PID.
3. **Termination**: Issues platform-specific termination commands.
4. **Verification**: Checks port status iteratively, waiting between retries.

```
## Tech Stack
- **Rust**: System programming language (Edition 2024).
- **listeners**: Cross-platform port listener query.
- **nix**: Unix signal management.
- **kill_tree**: Windows process tree deletion.
- **log**: Event diagnostics.

## API
### `kill_port::kill`
```rust
pub fn kill(port: u16) -> std::io::Result<()>
```
Locates and terminates processes binding the specified port.
- **Parameters**: `port` (u16) - Target port number.
- **Returns**: `std::io::Result<()>` - Ok if target port is cleared.
## History of Process Termination
The concept of process termination traces back to early Unix. The `kill` command was not designed strictly as an executor, but rather as a generalized signaler. `SIGKILL` (Signal 9) acts as an unblockable, uncatchable command that forces the kernel to destroy the process immediately, contrasting with `SIGTERM` (Signal 15) which gently requests exit.
Web developer environments frequently experience port collisions (`EADDRINUSE`) due to orphan development servers. Automated tools like `kill_port` eliminate manual lookup workflows by packing system signal logic into a single command.

跨平台端口进程终止工具。定位并清除绑定指定端口的进程，保障开发与自动化工作流顺畅。提供安全可靠的进程去重设计。
## 使用演示
完整演示代码请参考 `tests/`。
```rust
use kill_port::kill;
fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
// 终止占用 8080 端口的进程
kill(8080)?;
Ok(())
}
```
## 特性介绍
- **高效进程去重**：采用动态列表进行 PID 去重，消除固定大小数组的容量限制，支持任意数量监听进程的去重。
- **渐进式信号升级**：Unix 系统下优先发送 `SIGTERM`（优雅退出），重试 10 次无效后升级为 `SIGKILL`（强制杀死）。Windows 系统下直接执行进程树清除。
- **自我保护机制**：自动识别并排除当前调用进程 PID，防止进程自杀。
## 设计思路
1. **发现**: 通过 `listeners` 库获取目标端口的监听器。
2. **过滤**: 对进程 PID 进行去重并过滤掉调用进程的 PID。
3. **清除**: 视操作系统执行信号发送（Unix）或进程树杀死（Windows）。
4. **重试**: 若仍有残留进程，则休眠并重新获取状态，直至端口完全释放。
```mermaid
graph TD
A[调用 kill] --> B[获取端口监听者]
B --> C{是否发现进程?}
E --> F{仍有目标?}
F -->|否| D
F -->|是| G[终止进程]
G --> H{重试次数 > 10?}
H -->|否| I[SIGTERM / Windows 进程树清除]
H -->|是| J[SIGKILL / Windows 进程树清除]
I --> K[休眠并重试]
J --> K
K --> B
```
## 技术栈
- **Rust**: 开发语言 (Edition 2024)。
- **listeners**: 跨平台监听端口探测。
- **nix**: Unix 信号管理。
- **kill_tree**: Windows 进程树强制退出。
- **log**: 日志输出。

## API 说明
### `kill_port::kill`
```rust
pub fn kill(port: u16) -> std::io::Result<()>
```
定位并终止监听指定端口的进程。
- **参数**: `port` (u16) - 网络端口号。
- **返回值**: `std::io::Result<()>` - 执行结果。
## 历史小故事
“Kill”（杀死）一词最初源自 Multics 操作系统与早期的 Unix。虽然名字听起来充斥着毁灭感，但 `kill` 命令的设计初衷实则是传递“信号（Signal）”。`SIGKILL` (Signal 9) 作为系统内核的终极指令，无法被进程捕获、阻塞或忽略，因此能做到立竿见影的彻底查杀；而 `SIGTERM` (Signal 15) 则是请求进程自我清理后退出。
在当今开发环境中，由于热重载服务泛滥，僵尸开发进程强占端口（`EADDRINUSE`）屡见不鲜。以往手动使用 `lsof` 和 `kill -9` 的繁琐仪式，如今已由 `kill_port` 这种工具自动化接管，将底层的信号量控制逻辑妥善隐藏于精简的 API 之下。
