How to run a function in a separate process?

Question

Node.js

There is a runMe.js file where

export default async function handler(props) {
  // some hard work
  return someData;
}

I want to run this file in a separate process, passing props there and getting someData, i.e.

const result = await runInAnotherProcess('./runMe.js', props)

How can this be checked?

Answer 1

There are Workers, they run in a separate thread (not a process) https://nodejs.org/api/worker_threads.html
You can run a separate module through child_process.fork
