attached a patch to add a switch to have libreoffice store its pid in a
file. I need that so that when libo runs in headless mode i can have a
supervisor process checking if libo is running and in case just restart
it. The error handling is a bit lame, do we have an helper to create a
file with its content with one function call somewhere? that could help
cleaning the pidfile creation code a bit i think.
I'm not sure how exactly you would want to use this (e.g., given that
there's only code to create the pid file, but none to clear it again),
but have a few points:
* If you have a supervisor process, why not let it keep track of the pid
of any started LO process?
Because it can track only one pid :)
My plan is to use uwsgi [1] to manage libo instances by a feature called
smart-attach-daemon [2] (not so robust atm btw) so i need to export the
pid of the process i want to manage. The advantage of this is i can have the
same stack running my python app (presumably a wrapper for unoconv [3])
keeping libreoffice running. I'm no root here so i can't exploit a modern
init system.
[uwsgi]
master = true
socket = :3031
#smart-attach-daemon = libo.pid /usr/local/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice
'--accept=socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;' --pidfile=libo.pid
attach-daemon = /usr/local/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice
'--accept=socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;'
The difference between the two is that with the smart one i can reload my
app without restarting libreoffice.
* The client-facing executable in LO is soffice (which on Linux is a
shell script that execs into oosplash), which internally spawns
soffice.bin processes. It would thus look more natural to be interested
in pid files from the client-facing process rather than from soffice.bin
processes (which your patch would implement).
soffice.bin is the one i see in netstat so it looked the right one to me,
but handling this from soffice would be lot more easier.
