pLauncher

pLauncher spawns group of services and watch over them.

Features:

• Declarative configuration.
• Allow services to have dynamic configuration: service may start with dynamically selected parameter value. It is developed in order to provide ability to start service on randomly selected port.
• Allow services to have shared context. For example when one service starts on randomly selected port, configuration of another service may refer to it.
• Pure Python project works under Linux, Windows and Mac.

Example

worker_cfg = {
    'name': 'Worker',

    'params': {
        'PORT': lambda: random.randint(49152, 65535),
        'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
        'PATH': '/home/users',
    },

    'endpoints': [('{Worker_HOST}', '{Worker_PORT}')],
    'attempts': 5,

    'env': {'PATH': '{Worker_PATH}'}
    'cmd': ['./worker', '--host={Worker_HOST}', '--port={Worker_PORT}'],
}

server_cfg = {
    'name': 'Server',

    'endpoints': [('127.0.0.1', '8080')],
    'attempts': 3,

    'cmd': ['./server',
            '--worker-host={Worker_HOST}',
            '--worker-port={Worker_PORT}'],
}

launcher = Launcher([worker_cfg, server_cfg])
try:
    await launcher.run()
    await launcher.wait()
finally:
    await launcher.shutdown()
