# Daemon Control (daemonctl)
Description: A python framework and tools to manage small applications


Technology stack: Plain python
Status: Running in production [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md).
When administrating alot of applications on different servers or developing alot of small services it’s often desireable to keep the inhouse services seperate from system services.


## Dependencies

setprocname: to have cleaner names in ps for the daemons (not required)
fast-entry_points


## Installation
sudo ./setup.py install
## Configuration
configfile in /usr/local/etc/daemonctl.conf (or where DAEMONCTL is installed)

Configformat:

logpath = logdir # Path to directory where log files will be placed
pidpath = piddir # Path to directory where pid files will be placed
modules {

module1 {

name = modulename # name of daemon in status and other daemonctl commands (should include %(id)s if type=dynamic)
type = moduletype # single or dynamic
path = modulepath # Path to where the files are (will do chdir to here before running command)
execcmd = commandline # Command to run (will be prefixed with path)
listcmd = listcommand # Command that returns id:s for type=dynamic, one id per row
logpath = logdir # Can override the global logpath
pidpath = piddir # Can override the global pidpath
runas = username # Run daemon as this user

}
