zinit

A POC PID 1 replacement that feels like runit written in rust+tokio

Goal

A PID replacement that is very lightweight and provide the following requirements

• Make sure that configured services are up and running at all times
• Support service dependencies during the boot process
• Provide a simple command line interface to add, start, stop and reload services

Usage

please check docs here

Test docker image

To play with zinit, we have a testing docker image you can build easily by typing make docker. The test image currently auto starts redis and open-sshd, it doesn't create key or change passwords (please check Dockerfile).

Local build notes

• To build locally you can use make
• Build requires rust and musl, musl-tools installed
• Preferred to build with rust version cargo 1.46.0 (149022b1d 2020-07-17)
