class DaemonContext:
""" Context for turning the current program into a daemon process.
A `DaemonContext` instance represents the behaviour settings and
process context for the program when it becomes a daemon. The
behaviour and environment is customised by setting options on the
instance, before calling the `open` method.
Each option can be passed as a keyword argument to the `DaemonContext`
constructor, or subsequently altered by assigning to an attribute on
the instance at any time prior to calling `open`. That is, for
options named `wibble` and `wubble`, the following invocation::
foo = daemon.DaemonContext(wibble=bar, wubble=baz)
foo.open()
is equivalent to::
foo = daemon.DaemonContext()
foo.wibble = bar
foo.wubble = baz
foo.open()
The following options are defined.
`files_preserve`
:Default: ``None``
List of files that should *not* be closed when starting the
daemon. If ``None``, all open file descriptors will be closed.
Elements of the list are file descriptors (as returned by a file
object's `fileno()` method) or Python `file` objects. Each
specifies a file that is not to be closed during daemon start.
`chroot_directory`
:Default: ``None``
Full path to a directory to set as the effective root directory of
the process. If ``None``, specifies that the root directory is not
to be changed.
`working_directory`
:Default: ``'/'``
Full path of the working directory to which the process should
change on daemon start.
Since a filesystem cannot be unmounted if a process has its
current working directory on that filesystem, this should either
be left at default or set to a directory that is a sensible “home
directory” for the daemon while it is running.
`umask`
:Default: ``0``
File access creation mask (“umask”) to set for the process on
daemon start.
A daemon should not rely on the parent process's umask value,
which is beyond its control and may prevent creating a file with
the required access mode. So when the daemon context opens, the
umask is set to an explicit known value.
If the conventional value of 0 is too open, consider setting a
value such as 0o022, 0o027, 0o077, or another specific value.
Otherwise, ensure the daemon creates every file with an
explicit access mode for the purpose.
`pidfile`
:Default: ``None``
Context manager for a PID lock file. When the daemon context opens
and closes, it enters and exits the `pidfile` context manager.
`detach_process`
:Default: ``None``
If ``True``, detach the process context when opening the daemon
context; if ``False``, do not detach.
If unspecified (``None``) during initialisation of the instance,
this will be set to ``True`` by default, and ``False`` only if
detaching the process is determined to be redundant; for example,
in the case when the process was started by `init`, by `initd`, or
by `inetd`.
`signal_map`
:Default: system-dependent
Mapping from operating system signals to callback actions.
The mapping is used when the daemon context opens, and determines
the action for each signal's signal handler:
* A value of ``None`` will ignore the signal (by setting the
signal action to ``signal.SIG_IGN``).
* A string value will be used as the name of an attribute on the
``DaemonContext`` instance. The attribute's value will be used
as the action for the signal handler.
* Any other value will be used as the action for the
signal handler. See the ``signal.signal`` documentation
for details of the signal handler interface.
The default value depends on which signals are defined on the
running system. Each item from the list below whose signal is
actually defined in the ``signal`` module will appear in the
default map:
* ``signal.SIGTTIN``: ``None``
* ``signal.SIGTTOU``: ``None``
* ``signal.SIGTSTP``: ``None``
* ``signal.SIGTERM``: ``'terminate'``
Depending on how the program will interact with its child
processes, it may need to specify a signal map that
includes the ``signal.SIGCHLD`` signal (received when a
child process exits). See the specific operating system's
documentation for more detail on how to determine what
circumstances dictate the need for signal handlers.
`uid`
:Default: ``os.getuid()``
`gid`
:Default: ``os.getgid()``
The user ID (“UID”) value and group ID (“GID”) value to switch
the process to on daemon start.
The default values, the real UID and GID of the process, will
relinquish any effective privilege elevation inherited by the
process.
`initgroups`
:Default: ``False``
If true, set the daemon process's supplementary groups as
determined by the specified `uid`.
This will require that the current process UID has
permission to change the process's owning GID.
`prevent_core`
:Default: ``True``
If true, prevents the generation of core files, in order to avoid
leaking sensitive information from daemons run as `root`.
`stdin`
:Default: ``None``
`stdout`
:Default: ``None``
`stderr`
:Default: ``None``
Each of `stdin`, `stdout`, and `stderr` is a file-like object
which will be used as the new file for the standard I/O stream
`sys.stdin`, `sys.stdout`, and `sys.stderr` respectively. The file
should therefore be open, with a minimum of mode 'r' in the case
of `stdin`, and mimimum of mode 'w+' in the case of `stdout` and
`stderr`.
If the object has a `fileno()` method that returns a file
descriptor, the corresponding file will be excluded from being
closed during daemon start (that is, it will be treated as though
it were listed in `files_preserve`).
If ``None``, the corresponding system stream is re-bound to the
file named by `os.devnull`.
