process-orchestrator

Light-weight runtime, that runs executables, restarts them when they fail, and recycles them upon memory-usage conditions. Can be hosted as a windows service

Configure each process

The process-orchestrator will search the conf folder for YAML files, and load each one to configure a process it is to run and keep-alive.

Inputs

Name	Type	Description
name	string	Name of the configuration
executable	string	Path to the executable to run
arguments	string array	Arguments to pass on the command line to the executable to running it
working_directory	string	Path to the current working directory the executable should be run under
log_file	string	The log file where the STDOUT / STDERR is written to. If this is omitted, it will be output on the process-orchestrator's STDOUT / STDERR.
environment_variables	string map	Key/value pairs that are passed to the executable as environment variables

Example

name: node_script
executable: "program.exe"
arguments:
  - "-e"
  - "program_argument"
working_directory: "program_dir/bin"
log_file: "program_dir/log/output.log"
environment_variables:
  DB_SERVER: myserver.local
  DB_DATABASE: mydb

Roadmap

• Currently only works on Windows (will be looking to expand for linux)
• Multiply process to run a number of replicas
• API to have existing processes request new processes
