daemonize

Run a command (that does not daemonize itself) as a Unix daemon. More information: http://software.clapper.org/daemonize/.

• Run a command as a daemon:
  daemonize {{command}} {{command_arguments}}
• Write the PID to the specified file:
  daemonize -p {{path/to/pidfile}} {{command}} {{command_arguments}}
• Use a lock file to ensure that only one instance runs at a time:
  daemonize -l {{path/to/lockfile}} {{command}} {{command_arguments}}
• Use the specified user account:
  sudo daemonize -u {{user}} {{command}} {{command_arguments}}
