# Managed Service Daemon

A wrapper for spawning child processes as managed daemons in Node, with typescript definitions included.

## Usage

Install via [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/managed-service-daemon) and require in your project.

```js

const gulp = require('gulp')

const shell = require('gulp-shell')

const { Service } = require('managed-service-daemon')

const workingDir = './.azurite'

const azuriteBlob = new Service({

  name: 'azuriteBlob',

  command: 'node',

  args: [path.normalize('./node_modules/azurite/dist/src/blob/main'), '-s', '-l', workingDir],

  startWait: 500,

  onStart: () => fs.mkdirSync(workingDir),

  onStop: () => fs.rmdirSync(workingDir, { recursive: true })

})

exports.mocha = async function mocha () {

  return shell.task(['mocha'], { ignoreErrors: true })()

}

exports.test = gulp.series(azuriteBlob.start, exports.mocha, azuriteBlob.stop)

```

The Service options also accept all non-overlapping `child_process.spawn` options; overlapping options would include `stdio`, for example.

Aditional options specific to the Service class can be viewed in the [TypeScript code](./src/Interfaces.ts).
