I was looking for a simple way to daemonize a Python process, and found:
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3143/
I used easy_install to add this package (I thought), but when I
attempted to use the example in the above link, I got the error:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'DaemonContext'
To my surprise when looking at the module that was installed, I found
something completely different to what was in the documentation:
['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__',
'basic_daemonize', 'checkPID', 'daemonize', 'errno', 'os', 'sys',
'writePID']
Further experimentation with this module yielded a working daemon, but I
am concerned regarding its parentage and lack of documentation. Could
someone explain these discrepancies?
Best regards,
Dave.
