Drain

Drain is a process manager like foreman.

Build and Test:

  $ ./bootstrap.sh

Usage

• Create $HOME/.drainfile with the following schema (example):

  process-name-1:color-number:group-name-1,group-name-2:command
  process-name-2:color-number:group-name-1:command
  # a comment
  ...
  

  • process-name: the user defined name of the process
  • color-number: terminal color number (0-255 if your terminal support 256 colors)
  • group-name: simplifies starting a group of processes (only the server and up command supports groups)
  • command: a bourne shell command

• Start all processes with drain server.
