How are daemon processes started in Python?

Question

I want to start two daemon process in python like following code:

daemon_main = DaemonImplMain()
daemon_check = DaemonImplCheck()
pid = os.fork()
if pid:
    daemon_main.start()
else:
    daemon_check.start()

in this code , daemon_main is a http server with wsgi, daemon_check is a check process. But the daemon_main cannot accept request when i run this code.

Answer 1

Do DaemonImplMain and DaemonImplCheck inherit from threading.Thread? If so, then you can set the daemon to true before starting the threads.

For eg.

daemon_main.daemon = True
daemon_main.start()

Same goes for daemon_check
