npm install sendmessage --save

import { fork } from 'node:child_process';
import { sendmessage } from 'sendmessage';
const worker = fork('./worker.js');

Send a cross process message.
If a process is not child process, this will just call process.emit('message', message) instead.
- childProcess: child process instance
- message: the message need to send
`js`
sendmessage(process, { hello: 'this is a message to master' });
You can switch to process.emit('message', message) using process.env.SENDMESSAGE_ONE_PROCESS`
