# 💣 react-native-kill-packager



*Kill the React Native Packager running on port 8081.*



Simply run `react-native-kill-packager` when you encounter this:



```

  ERROR  Packager can't listen on port 8081



  Most likely another process is already using this port

  Run the following command to find out which process:



     lsof -n -i4TCP:8081



  You can either shut down the other process:



     kill -9 



  or run packager on different port.



```



You can add it as an npm script and run `npm run packager:kill` or `npm run packager:restart`:



```

"scripts": {

  "packager:kill": "react-native-kill-packager",

  "packager:restart": "react-native-kill-packager; npm start",

};

```



## Installation



```

npm install --save-dev react-native-kill-packager

```
