udp-finder

Installation

$ npm install udp-finder

Usage

var udpFinder = require('udp-finder');
var basePort = 3000; //port search starts from 3000
var portAmount = 5; //5 available ports to search for
 
udpFinder.getPort(basePort, function(err, port){
  //
  //`port` will be an available port
  //
  //
});
 
udpFinder.getPorts(portAmount, basePort, function(err, ports){
  //
  //`ports` will be an array of available ports 
  //
  //
});
 

basePort is where udp-finder starts its search from. For basePort, it can take in object in this form {port: 3000}, or it can just be a port number(e.g. 3000). portAmount is the number of available ports to search for. Note that the udp-finder only search for udp4 for now.

Purpose

udp-finder will be useful to those who wants to search for a available udp4 port on the local machine.
