I am working on a bigger system monitoring application and one of things I had to create for this project, it’s a just published tcp port checker / scanner library for nodejs.

This little utility allows you to:
- check if a given port is being used
- get the first available port from a given range (useful when you need to find some free port for forwarding)
- get all open ports in a given range

the code is opensourced and it’s available at:
