Find multiple free ports

ports = pm.find(3000, 2)

Kill a process on a specific port

success = pm.kill(8080)

Kill processes on multiple ports

results = pm.kill_all([8080, 8081])

List port usage

Retrieve the process IDs listening on ports 3000 through 3010:

usage = pm.list_usage((3000, 3010))

Obtain a random ephemeral port

random_port = pm.random_port()

Shorthand call
