Excalibur

Gunning to be your next init. Combines a reliable, straightforward process manager with a pluggable logger and a zombie reaper.

Slice through your daemons - all logging is seamlessly handled through stdout/err

Status

Process handling is mostly finished except for tests. The built binary simple runs redis-server for 10 seconds to test functionality

Todo

• Config file parsing + dependency tree generation
• Parallel launching of programs from the dependency tree
• file based logger

Goals

• Control via mangos/nanomsg + creation of a caliburctl binary
• Pluggable logging backends (not just flatfiles in /log/redis/YYYY-MM-DD) and symlinks /log/redis/today//log/redis/yesterday
• Socket activation? (needs to be researched if this even has real benefits)
• Container control on top of runc/rkt/docker?
