Crate signal_child

A little library to easily signal other process with no dependencies.

This is essentially a wrapper around kill(3) on Unix-like systems. As such this crate only supports Unix-like systems.

Example

use std::process::Command;
use signal_child::Signalable;

// Spawn child process
let mut child = Command::new("sleep")
    .arg("1000")
    .spawn()
    .expect("Error spawning sleep process");
// Send SIGINT to the child.
child.interrupt().expect("Error interrupting child");
child.wait().ok();
