API

getPort(port, cb)

Quick and dirty way to find an open port number on your localhost. Super small as it doesn't include any huge dependencies like other port finder libs. Inspired by https://gist.github.com/mikeal/1840641

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
port	Number	<optional>	start port, will be increased until an open one is found, when not supplied a random port will be used
