Karabo SCADA Framework - Daemontools

A collection of tools for managing UNIX services

In the Karabo-context, daemontools provide the foundation for karabo.services.

A source distribution is provided, but may lead to compilation failures on systems not supported through the binary wheel packages as well. If compilation fails, please install daemontools directly.

There is no need for this wrapper for daemontools to work with Karabo.

Please check https://pypi.org/project/Karabo/ for an overview of Karabo's components and ways to install the full system.
