## Usage

Use TypeScript for best in class instellisense.

### Understand the Purpose

smartipc makes it easy to spawn tasks into subprocesses without loosing control over what those processes do.
You can transparently call functions and expect returned data using promises.

### How To

**Master.ts:**

```javascript
import * as smartspawn from 'smartspawn';
smartspawn.setBasePathArg(__dirname); // if you want to avoid typings out full paths every time

let myThread = new smartspawn.Thread('worker');
myThread.send('someMessageOrObject').then((messageResponse) => {
  console.log(messageResponse);
});
```

**worker.ts**

```javascript

```
