Service Manager

This crate provides a unified interface for managing system services across different platforms. It abstracts the underlying service management system (like launchctl on macOS or systemd on Linux), allowing you to start, stop, and monitor services with a consistent API.

Features

A ServiceManager trait defining a common interface for service operations.
Platform-specific implementations for:
- macOS (launchctl)
- Linux (systemd)
A factory function create_service_manager that returns the appropriate manager for the current platform.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
service_manager = { path = "../service_manager" }

Here is an example of how to use the ServiceManager:

use service_manager::{create_service_manager, ServiceConfig};
use std::collections::HashMap;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let service_manager = create_service_manager();

    let config = ServiceConfig {
        name: "my-service".to_string(),
        binary_path: "/usr/local/bin/my-service-executable".to_string(),
        args: vec!["--config".to_string(), "/etc/my-service.conf".to_string()],
        working_directory: Some("/var/tmp".to_string()),
        environment: HashMap::new(),
        auto_restart: true,
    };

    // Start a new service
    service_manager.start(&config)?;

    // Get the status of the service
    let status = service_manager.status("my-service")?;
    println!("Service status: {:?}", status);

    // Stop the service
    service_manager.stop("my-service")?;

    Ok(())
}
