Assuming that the electron application is using Node.js as the server, the process to restart the server would involve stopping the current server process and then starting it again. This can be achieved using the following steps:

  1. Identify the process ID (PID) of the current server process using the command ps -ef | grep node.
  2. Use the command kill <PID> to stop the server process.
  3. Start the server again using the command npm start or node <server filename>.

Alternatively, this process can be automated by including a script in the package.json file of the Electron application that runs the server restart command. For example, the following script would stop the current server process and start a new one:

"scripts": {
  "restart-server": "killall node && npm start"
}

This script can be run using the command npm run restart-server.
