# pgrep

> Find or signal process by name

- return PIDs of any running processes with a matching command string

`pgrep {{process_name}}`

- search full command line with parameters instead of just the process name

`pgrep -f "{{process_name}} {{parameter}}"`

- search for process run by a specific user

`pgrep -u root {{process_name}}`
