NAME

Beekeeper::WorkerPool::Daemon - Daemonize processes

VERSION

Version 0.08

SYNOPSIS

package MyDaemon;
use base 'Beekeeper::WorkerPool::Daemon';

sub main {
    my $self = shift;
    my $quit = 0;

    $SIG{'TERM'} = sub { $quit = 1 };
    $SIG{'INT'}  = sub { $quit = 1 };

    while (!$quit) {
        # Do something here...
        sleep 1;
    }
}

Then, the daemon can be executed with a script like this:

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use strict;
use warnings;
use MyDaemon;

$ENV{PATH} = '/bin'; # untaint

my $daemon = MyDaemon->new->run;

DESCRIPTION

This is a base module for creating daemons. It takes care of daemonization tasks commonly found in init.d scripts: forking, redirecting output, writing pid files, start/stop/restart control commands, etc.

It is used by the command line tool bkpr to daemonize itself.
