XAS::Lib::App::Daemon - The base class to write daemons within the XAS environment
use XAS::Lib::App::Daemon; my $app = XAS::Lib::App::Daemon->new(); $app->run();
This module defines an operating environment for daemons. A daemon is a Unix background process without a controlling terminal. Windows really doesn't have a concept for this behavior. For running background jobs on Windows please see XAS::Lib::App::Services.
This module is also single threaded, it doesn't use POE to provide an async environment. If you need that, then see the above module. This inherits from XAS::Lib::App. Please see that module for additional documentation.
This method sets up the pid file for the process. By default, this file is named $XAS_RUN/<$0>.pid. This can be overridden by the --pid-file option.
This method sets up basic signal handling. By default this is only for the INT, TERM, HUP and QUIT signals.
This method will cause the process to become a daemon.
This module handles these additional options.
This defines an optional configuration file.
This defines the pid file for recording the pid.
Become a daemon.
