python-daemon for Python v3

[Asaf Las]

Hi Community

Is there ported to Python v3 python-daemon package?

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-daemon/

i am afraid it is not as simple as correction of relative path input
feature and except clauses in mentioned package.

Thanks

Asaf

Have a read through the archives for the ‘python-daemon-devel’
discussion forum
<URL:http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/python-daemon-devel>,
where we have had discussions about porting the library to Python 3.
I'd be interested to know who wants us to keep Python 2 compatibility.
If we can drop that, then a Python 3 version of the library would be
much easier to maintain.

Thanks. i have not seen this, but different port. it is on github.
yet got myself rid of errors during pip install, but was not sure about latter.

We are also in need of an active maintainer for the ‘python-lockfile’
library <URL:https://pypi.python.org/pypi/lockfile/> which is commonly
used with ‘python-daemon’.

I would love to contribute but as a novice in Python, need time to make something valuable for community.

I use this technique for demonizing:

And has been ported to 3:

Thanks! i have seen this code before. Did you encounter any problem with
it before for long running tasks?

Nope, no problems at all.
