## Synopsis
This package is really similar to [ps-tree][gh:ps-tree] but is faster, safer andprovides sub-children results. Furthermore ps-tree is [unmaintained][gh:ps-tree-um].
Uuh, and a fancy [CLI](#cli) is also available!
## Usage
```jsvar pidtree = require('pidtree')
// Get childs of current processpidtree(process.pid, function (err, pids) { console.log(pids) // => []})
// Include the given pid in the result arraypidtree(process.pid, {root: true}, function (err, pids) { console.log(pids) // => [727]})
// Get all the processes of the System (-1 is a special value of this package)pidtree(-1, function (err, pids) { console.log(pids) // => [530, 42, ..., 41241]})
// Include PPID in the resultspidtree(1, {advanced: true}, function (err, pids) { console.log(pids) // => [{ppid: 1, pid: 530}, {ppid: 1, pid: 42}, ..., {ppid: 1, pid: 41241}]})
// If no callback is given it returns a promise insteadconst pids = await pidtree(1)console.log(pids)// => [141, 42, ..., 15242]```
## Compatibility
| Linux | FreeBSD | NetBSD | SunOS | macOS | Win | AIX || --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- || ✅ | ❓ | ❓ | ❓ | ✅ | ✅ | ❓ |
✅ = Working❓ = Not tested but should work
Please if your platform is not supported [file an issue][new issue].
## CLI
<img src="https://github.com/simonepri/pidtree/raw/master/media/cli.gif" alt="pidtree cli" width="300" align="right"/>Show a tree of the processes inside your system inside your terminal.
```bashnpx pidtree $PPID```Just replace `$PPID` with one of the pids inside your system.
Or don't pass anything if you want all the pids inside your system.
```bashnpx pidtree```
To display the output as a list, similar to the one produced from `pgrep -P $PID`,pass the `--list` flag.
```bashnpx pidtree --list```
## API
<a name="pidtree"></a>
## pidtree(pid, [options], [callback]) ⇒ <code>[Promise.<Array.<Object>>]</code>
Get the list of children pids of the given pid.
**Kind**: global function **Returns**: <code>Promise.<Array.<Object>></code> - Only when the callback is not provided. **Access**: public
| Param | Type | Default | Description || --- | --- | --- | --- || pid | <code>Number</code> \| <code>String</code> | | A pid. If -1 will return all the pids. || [options] | <code>Object</code> | | Optional options object. || [options.root] | <code>Boolean</code> | <code>false</code> | Include the provided pid in the list. Ignored if -1 is passed as pid. || [callback] | <code>function</code> | | Called when the list is ready. If not provided a promise is returned instead. |
