Description:

mattdaemon 1.1.1

Need to daemonize your Python2.7 projects? Matt Daemon has you covered.

Features

superuser (root) enforcement. Your script either requires it or it doesn’t. You choose!

If these checks fail, the script will exit with a status of 1.


Uses the double-fork magic of UNIX to daemonize.



Dependencies

Python 2.7



Notes

This is designed for CLI scripts, because it decouples from the parent environment and all.
Includes annoying messages when you use root to run a script.
daemon.start() and daemon.stop() don’t print messages. You’ll have to decide what to print, if anything.
MIT Licensed code, so you’re free to do whatever you want with this. Sell it, steal it, improve it, anything at all!



Running / Usage

Add the script to your dependencies, it’s on pypi! (pip install mattdaemon)
Documentation is available on readthedocs, so check there for usage.



Contributing
