# daemonize-me [](https://github.com/xadaemon/daemonize-me/actions/workflows/rust.yml) [](https://crates.io/crates/daemonize-me) [](https://crates.io/crates/daemonize-me) [](https://github.com/CardinalBytes/daemonize-me/blob/master/LICENSE)
Rust library to ease the task of creating daemons.
# Current releases and EOL table
| 3.0 | Upcoming | TBD |
| 2.0 | 2.0.4 | 2027-08 |
| 1.0(LTS) | 1.0.2 | 2022-10 |
# Basic usage
Add it to your cargo.toml this will add the whole 2.0.x series as compatible as per semver
```toml
daemonize-me = "2.0"
```
Then look at [hooks.rs](examples/hooks.rs)
## OS support
I will try to keep support for linux, freebsd and macos
| linux | tier 1 |
| freebsd, openbsd | tier 2 |
| macos, netbsd, unix | tier 3 |
| Anything non unix | not supported |
For tier 1 any code that breaks the tests and or ci/cd is blocking for a release,
tier 2 compilation errors are release blocking, tier 3 are supported on a best effort basis,
and build failure as well as test failures are not blocking.
note on custom/hobby OS support, if your os implements the syscalls used in lib.rs with behavior that is equivalent then this library is likely to work but it's even less of a guarantee.
