======

A cross-platform service/daemon wrapper with in-build auto-update, crash resilience and more.

**Current in development. Documentation pending.**

Features:

 * Cross platform - Windows (Service), Mac (Launchd), Linux (systemd)

 * Simple way to host a service (just write a command-line program)

 * Automatic service install

 * Automatic resilience and service crash recovery

 * Application status monitoring with auto restart. Monitor via:

   - HTTP status ping

   - TCP socket echo ping

   - TCP open connection ping

   - File change ping

 * Automatic update support with a framework supporting:

   - validation, 

   - signing, 

   - atomic commits

   - pre and post install actions (copy, move, rename, exec)

 * Run startup tasks (again just command-line programs)

 * Run tasks on a cron schedule

 * Advanced task/service control:

   - Graceful shutdown

   - Start delay

   - Option to randomize task time(s) (e.g. ensure update checks don't all arrive at the same time of day)

 * Lots of other stuff:

   - Logging and log rotation

   - Pid file

   - Simple text based configuration in JSON format
