Python daemonizer for Unix, Linux and OS X.

This library is a fork of python-daemon developed originally by serverdensity.

Install

Usage

It has a very simple usage and only requires a pid file to keep track of the daemon. The run() method should be overrided.

from servd import Daemon


class Service(Daemon):
    def __init__(self, pidfile) -> None:
        super().__init__(pidfile)

    def run(self) -> None:
        """Service code."""


service = Service("service.pid")

# Start service daemon
service.start()

# Restart service daemon
service.restart()

# Stop service daemon
service.stop()
