SystemD Socket activation support #1248

Open jacky309 opened 1 month ago

jacky309 commented 1 month ago

I would like my server to be socket-activatable (see https://0pointer.de/blog/projects/socket-activation.html). The trick is to use a file descriptor which has already been open by SystemD, rather than creating the server socket by ourselves. As far as I have seen, Pistache does not provide an API which enables passing an existing file descriptor. Is that right ?

It does not. But that's an interesting idea and a PR we would certainly look at.
