* Package name : socket-activate Version : 0.1 Upstream Author : Daniel Kahn Gillmor * URL : https://gitlab.com/dkg/socket-activate * License : GPL Programming Lang: Python Description : Run a socket-activated daemon with minimal dependencies socket-activate makes it possible to use socket-activated services on Unix-based systems that don't have systemd installed at all. It implements the environment variable and file descriptor convention described in sd_listen_fds(3) without using any external code or dependencies from systemd. The only thing it depends on is python3 itself. See https://bugs.debian.org/922082 for more discussion of the motivation for this project. Future versions might be in C, so that even python isn't required, but the initial python implementation is intended to validate the interface. Note that while i'm the responsible upstream on socket-activate, i'd welcome any other contributions to it.
