NAME

Supervisor::ProcessFactory - factory method to load processes

SYNOPSIS

This module is used to create multiple processes from a configuration file.

my @processes = Supervisor::ProcessFactory->load(
   Config => 'supervisor.ini'
);

foreach my $process (@processes) {

    $process->start();

}

DESCRIPTION

This module will take a configuration file and initilize all the managed processes defined within. The configuration follows the familiar Win32 .ini format. It is based, partially, on the configuration file used by the Supervisord project. Here is an example:

; My configuration file
;
[program:test]
command = /home/kesteb/outside/Supervisor/trunk/bin/test.sh
name = test
user = kesteb

This is the minimum of items needed to define a managed process. There are many more available. So what does this minimum show:

    o Item names are case sensitve.

    o A ";" indicates the start of a comment.

    o The section header must be unique and start with "program:".

    o It defines the command to be ran.

    o It defines a name that will be used to control the process.

    o It defines the user context that the command will be ran under.

These configuration items have corresponding parameters in Supervisor::Process.

Indicates which signal to use to stop the process. Defaults to "TERM". It is directly related to the StopSignal parameter.

stop-retries

Indicates how many times the supervisor should try to stop the process before sending it a KILL signal. Defaults to "5". I tis directly related to the StopRetries parameter.

stop-wait-secs

Indicates how many seconds to wait between attempts to stop the process. Defaults to "10". It is directly related to the StopWaitSecs parameter.

start-retries

Indicates how many start attempts should be done on process. Defaults to "5". It is directly realted to the StartRetries parameter.

start-wait-secs

Indicates how many seconds to wait between attempts to start the process. Defaults to "10". If is directly related to the StartWaitSecs parameter.
