MooseX::Daemonize(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation MooseX::Daemonize(3) NNAAMMEE MooseX::Daemonize - provides a Role that daemonizes your Moose based application. VVEERRSSIIOONN This document describes MooseX::Daemonize version 0.0.1 SSYYNNOOPPSSIISS package FileMaker; use Moose; with qw(MooseX::Daemonize); sub create_file { my ( $self, $file ) = @_; open( FILE, ">$file" ) || die; close(FILE); } no Moose; # then in the main package ... my $daemon = FileMaker->new(); $daemon->start(); $daemon->create_file($file); $daemon->stop(); DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN Often you want to write a persistant daemon that has a pid file, and responds appropriately to Signals. This module helps provide the basic infrastructure to do that. AATTTTRRIIBBUUTTEESS progname Str The name of our daemon, defaults to $self->meta->name =~ s/::/_/; pidbase Str The base for our bid, defaults to /var/run/$progname pidfile Str The file we store our PID in, defaults to /var/run/$progname/ foreground Bool If true, the process won't background. Useful for debugging. This option can be set via Getopt's -f. is_daemon Bool If true, the process is the backgrounded process. This is useful for example in an after 'start' => sub { } block MMEETTHHOODDSS _c_h_e_c_k_(_) Check to see if an instance is already running. _s_t_a_r_t_(_) Setup a pidfile, fork, then setup the signal handlers. _s_t_o_p_(_) Stop the process matching the pidfile, and unlinks the pidfile. _r_e_s_t_a_r_t_(_) Litterally $self->stop(); $self->start(); _d_a_e_m_o_n_i_z_e_(_) Calls "Proc::Daemon::Init" to daemonize this process. kill($pid) Kills the process for $pid. This will try SIGINT, and SIGTERM before falling back to SIGKILL and finally giving up. _s_e_t_u_p___s_i_g_n_a_l_s_(_) Setup the signal handlers, by default it only sets up handlers for SIGINT and SIGHUP _h_a_n_d_l_e___s_i_g_i_n_t_(_) Handle a INT signal, by default calls "$self-"_s_t_o_p_(_)> _h_a_n_d_l_e___s_i_g_h_u_p_(_) Handle a HUP signal. By default calls "$self-"_r_e_s_t_a_r_t_(_)> get_pid Lookup the pid from our pidfile. save_pid Save the current pid in our pidfile remove_pid Delete our pidfile _m_e_t_a_(_) The "meta()" method from Class::MOP::Class DDEEPPEENNDDEENNCCIIEESS Obviously Moose, also Carp, Proc::Daemon, File::Pid IINNCCOOMMPPAATTIIBBIILLIITTIIEESS None reported.
