I expect to achieve that using a a process manager and to open and keep open any listening sockets and then pass them on to children. Circus can do this: http://circus.readthedocs.org/en/latest/for-ops/sockets/ ...but for now it only passes any open file descriptor on the command line. We need heka to be able to be configured fully on the command line or we need sockets in circus to be more specific by duping to a specific number which a heka config file will have specified in various listen sections. I expect the latter to be more easily achieved. I'd planned on leaning on the circus guys to add that feature or implement myself when I had the chance. > _______________________________________________ > Heka mailing list > [email protected] > https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/heka > >
