spawn_and_check

===============

.. image:: https://travis-ci.org/not-raspberry/spawn_and_check.svg?branch=master

    :target: https://travis-ci.org/not-raspberry/spawn_and_check

Provide some checks, spawn a process and poll it until all checks pass.

That way you know when the application really starts working.

Example

-------

.. code:: Python

    from spawn_and_check import execute, check_http

    process = execute('run_some_service --port 8000', [check_http('http://127.0.0.1:8000')], timeout=10)

    # The process is ready at this point.

Warning

-------

The API has not been stabilised nor defined and it is prone to change. Most probably the checks signature will change

from ``() -> bool`` to ``subprocess.Popen -> bool``.
