= Daemons Version 1.0.11 (See Releases for release-specific information) == What is Daemons? Daemons provides an easy way to wrap existing ruby scripts (for example a self-written server) to be <i>run as a daemon</i> and to be <i>controlled by simple start/stop/restart commands</i>. If you want, you can also use daemons to <i>run blocks of ruby code in a daemon process</i> and to control these processes from the main application. Besides this basic functionality, daemons offers many advanced features like <i>exception backtracing</i> and logging (in case your ruby script crashes) and <i>monitoring</i> and automatic restarting of your processes if they crash. Daemons includes the <tt>daemonize.rb</tt> script written by <i>Travis Whitton</i> to do the daemonization process. == Basic Usage You can use Daemons in four differet ways: === 1. Create wrapper scripts for your server scripts or applications Layout: suppose you have your self-written server <tt>myserver.rb</tt>: # this is myserver.rb # it does nothing really useful at the moment loop do sleep(5) end To use <tt>myserver.rb</tt> in a production environment, you need to be able to run <tt>myserver.rb</tt> in the _background_ (this means detach it from the console, fork it in the background, release all directories and file descriptors). Just create <tt>myserver_control.rb</tt> like this: # this is myserver_control.rb require 'rubygems' # if you use RubyGems require 'daemons' Daemons.run('myserver.rb') And use it like this from the console: $ ruby myserver_control.rb start (myserver.rb is now running in the background) $ ruby myserver_control.rb restart (...) $ ruby myserver_control.rb stop For testing purposes you can even run <tt>myserver.rb</tt> <i>without forking</i> in the background: $ ruby myserver_control.rb run An additional nice feature of Daemons is that you can pass <i>additional arguments</i> to the script that should be daemonized by seperating them by two _hyphens_: $ ruby myserver_control.rb start -- --file=anyfile --a_switch another_argument === 2. Create wrapper scripts that include your server procs Layout: suppose you have some code you want to run in the background and control that background process from a script: # this is your code # it does nothing really useful at the moment loop do sleep(5) end To run this code as a daemon create <tt>myproc_control.rb</tt> like this and include your code: # this is myproc_control.rb require 'rubygems' # if you use RubyGems require 'daemons' Daemons.run_proc('myproc.rb') do loop do sleep(5) end end And use it like this from the console: $ ruby myproc_control.rb start (myproc.rb is now running in the background) $ ruby myproc_control.rb restart (...) $ ruby myproc_control.rb stop For testing purposes you can even run <tt>myproc.rb</tt> <i>without forking</i> in the background: $ ruby myproc_control.rb run === 3. Control a bunch of daemons from another application Layout: you have an application <tt>my_app.rb</tt> that wants to run a bunch of server tasks as daemon processes. # this is my_app.rb require 'rubygems' # if you use RubyGems require 'daemons' task1 = Daemons.call(:multiple => true) do # first server task loop { conn = accept_conn() serve(conn) } end task2 = Daemons.call do # second server task loop { something_different() } end # the parent process continues to run # we can even control our tasks, for example stop them task1.stop task2.stop exit === 4. Daemonize the currently running process Layout: you have an application <tt>my_daemon.rb</tt> that wants to run as a daemon (but without the ability to be controlled by daemons via start/stop commands) # this is my_daemons.rb require 'rubygems' # if you use RubyGems require 'daemons' # Initialize the app while we're not a daemon init() # Become a daemon Daemons.daemonize # The server loop loop { conn = accept_conn() serve(conn) } <b>For further documentation, refer to the module documentation of Daemons.</b> == Download and Installation *Download*: just go to http://rubyforge.org/projects/daemons/ Installation *with* RubyGems: $ su # gem install daemons Installation *without* RubyGems: $ tar xfz daemons-x.x.x.tar.gz $ cd daemons-x.x.x $ su # ruby setup.rb == Documentation For further documentation, refer to the module documentation of Daemons (click on Daemons).
