Description (last modified by )
Rather than running in the foreground as a typical program, optionally wcst_import should be able to run as a daemon process in the background; relevant: python-daemon. We could emulate this by running it with nohup, but this doesn't allow very good control.
Starting wcst_import.sh on the same ingredients file while the daemon is already running should exit with an error in this case, and the daemon keeps running.
wcst_import would have options for daemon control, e.g:
- wcst_import.sh ingredients.json —daemon status
- wcst_import.sh ingredients.json —daemon start
- wcst_import.sh ingredients.json —daemon stop
This feature is nice to have for running wcst_import in the background while watching for new files (#1870)
