Daemon Manager

Overview

DaemonManager is a project that combines a Bash script and a C program to manage daemons and signals. The project includes:

1. A Bash script (DaemonManager) to manage daemonized tasks.
2. A C program (signal_handler.c) to handle signals for the daemons.

Features

• Install the script and binary to /usr/local/bin for system-wide usage.
• Provide an intuitive way to manage background processes.

Prerequisites

• A Linux environment with:
  • bash
  • gcc
• Root (sudo) privileges for installation.

Installation

To install DaemonManager and the associated C program:

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/daemon-manager.git
   cd daemon-manager

2. Run the install.sh script as root:

   sudo ./install.sh

Script Details

The install.sh script:

• Checks for root privileges.
• Validates the existence of DaemonManager and signal_handler.c.
• Compiles signal_handler.c into an executable binary.
• Installs both the Bash script and the compiled binary to /usr/local/bin.

Usage

After installation, you can use DaemonManager by simply typing:

DaemonManager

Ensure that the installed script and binary have execute permissions. The installation script takes care of this automatically.
