TODO for ‘python-daemon’ library
################################
=======
PENDING
=======
Tests
=====
* Write full unit tests for every new or changed behaviour at time of
commit.
Libraries
=========
* Work correctly with current ‘lockfile’ library (0.9 or later).
* Evaluate switching to ‘flufl.lock’ library for PID lockfile behaviour
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/flufl.lock>_.
Features
========
Important
---------
Wishlist
--------
* Allow specification of a syslog service name to log as (default:
output to stdout and stderr, not syslog).
Documentation
=============
Standard library inclusion
==========================
* Convert to Python 3.
====
DONE
====
* Detect whether started by another process that handles
daemonisation, such as ‘inetd’, and behave appropriately.
* Detach to new process and session group.
* Allow specification of working directory (default: '/').
* Allow specification of umask (default: 0000).
* Drop ‘suid’ and ‘sgid’ privileges if set.
* Close all open file handles.
* Re-open stdin, stdout, stderr to user-specified files.
* Default re-open stdin, stdout, stderr to ‘/dev/null’.
* Allow specification of a non-root user and group to drop to, if
started as ‘root’ (default: no change of user or group).
* Implement context manager protocol for daemon context.
* Allow specification of PID file with its own context manager
(default: no PID file).
* Full docstrings for functions, classes, and modules.
* PEP 3143 for adding this library to the Python standard library.
