# Rust kill Process
</div>
A simple CLI tool to kill a process by port
This is a simple hobby project made by me to gain some experience in working with rust.
<br>
I felt exhaused by using `kill -9 $(lsof -t -i:PORT)` everytime I wanted to kill a process by port, so I made this tool.
<br>
<br>
## Usage
clone the repo:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/anudeep652/rust-kill-process.git
```
<br>
```sh
cd rust-kill-process
```
```sh
cargo run -- PORT
```
> Remember to replace PORT with the port number you want to kill
<br>
OR
<br>
<br>
Create an executable to run it locally anywhere in your local machine after cloning the repo
```sh
cargo install --path .
```
Now you can run anywhere in your terminal like this:
```sh
p-kill PORT
```
> 'p-kill' is the executable name, you can change it in Cargo.toml and you need to again create an executable.
<br>
## Future plans
- Add support for killing process by name
- Add support for killing process by PID
- Add better error handling
