windows-mutex




Expose the Windows CreateMutex API to Node.JS.

Installation

@vscode/windows-mutex will only compile in Windows machines, so it is advisable
to use the --save-optional flag and wrap the
require('@vscode/windows-mutex') call in a try {} catch {} block, in case your
code also runs on other platforms.

``
npm install --save-optional @vscode/windows-mutex
`

Usage

`javascript
import { Mutex } from '@vscode/windows-mutex';

var mutex = new Mutex('my-mutex');
console.log(mutex.isActive());
mutex.release();
``

Development

Publishing to NPM is automated via CI. As soon as a tag is pushed to the repo, that version will be built and published to NPM.
