Add the following variables to expose more arguments that can be passed
to start-stop-daemon or supervise-daemon:
- directory will be passed to --chdir
- error_log will be passed to --stderr
- output_log will be passed to --stdout
- umask will be passed to umask
This is for #184.
This is to be used if the service is being supervised and the
supervisor is somehow killed.
Currently, this is very linux specific, but I will expand to other
platforms, patches are welcome.
The --retry option for supervise-daemon defines how the supervisor will
attempt to stop the child process it is monitoring. It is defined when
the supervisor is started since stopping the supervisor just sends a
signal to the active supervisor.
This fixes#160.
This creates --respawn-delay, --respawn-max and --respawn-period. It was
suggested that it would be easier to follow if the options were
separated.
This is for #126.
Allow limiting the number of times supervise-daemon will attempt to respawn a
daemon once it has died to prevent infinite respawning. Also, set a
reasonable default limit (10 times in a 5 second period).
This is for issue #126.
