I am very new to using Twisted. I have set up a protocol in a .py and it works perfectly. The thing is that currently to test it I have to ssh into my server and run it. I would like to have it running as a service/server so it is always serving my protocol. I read on the twisted site something about .tac files but I'm not sure how to tie that in with the protocol file I've written.
All I have is a simple socket based iPhone app that sends messages to the reactor and receives messages back.
I would like this to start up when the server boots. Much like an apache server works.
Thanks for your help.
Daemonization in twisted is achieved via the twistd shell command. I found this tutorial quite useful: Using the Twisted Application Framework
