# 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

• python >= 2.6

• 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

}

}
