 # wingmate
 
+Wingmate is a process manager for services. It works like init. It starts and restarts services.
+It also has cron feature. It is designed to run in a container/docker. 
+The Wingmate binary do not need any external dependency. 
+Just copy the binary, and exec from the entry point script.
+
+# Getting Started
+
+## Binaries
+
+There are three binaries in this project: `wingmate`, `wmpidproxy`, and `wmexec`.
+
+`wingmate` is the core binary. It reads config, starts, restarts services. It also
+runs cron. Read the [configuration](#configuration) section for files needed to run
+`wingmate`.
+
+`wmpidproxy` is a helper binary for monitoring _legacy style_ service (fork, exit
+initial proces, and continue in background). Read [here](#wingmate-pid-proxy-binary)
+for further details about `wmpidproxy`.
+
+`wmexec` is a helper binary for running process in different `user` or `group`.
+It also useful for setting the process as process group leader.
+Read [here](#wingmate-exec-binary) for further details about `wmexec`.
+
+## Building a container image based on wingmate image in Docker Hub
+
+Wingmate has no dependency other than `alpine` base image, so you just need to copy
+the binaries directly. If you have built your application into an `alpine` based image,
+all you need to do is copy whichever binary you need, crontab file (if you use cron)
+and add some shell script to glue them together. Here is a Dockerfile example.
+
+```Dockerfile
+# Dockerfile
+FROM suyono/wingmate:alpine as source
+
+FROM alpine:latest
+ADD --chmod=755 wingmate/ /etc/wingmate/
+ADD --chmod=755 entry.sh /usr/local/bin/entry.sh
+COPY --from=source /usr/local/bin/wingmate /usr/local/bin/wingmate
+COPY --from=source /usr/local/bin/wmpidproxy /usr/local/bin/wmpidproxy
+COPY --from=source /usr/local/bin/wmexec /usr/local/bin/wmexec
+ENTRYPOINT [ "/usr/local/bin/entry.sh" ]
+CMD [ "/usr/local/bin/wingmate" ]
+```
+You can find some examples for shell script in [alpine docker](docker/alpine) and 
+[bookworm docker](docker/bookworm).
+
+## Configuration
+
+When `wingmate` binary starts, it will look for some files. By default, it will
+try to read the content of `/etc/wingmate` directory. You can change the directory
+where it reads by setting `WINGMATE_CONFIG_PATH` environment variable. The structure
+inside the config path should look like this.
+
+```shell
+/etc
+ └── wingmate
+     ├── crontab
+     ├── crontab.d
+     │   ├── cron1.sh
+     │   ├── cron2.sh
+     │   └── cron3.sh
+     └── service
+         ├── one.sh
+         └── spawner.sh
+```
+
+First, `wingmate` will try to read the content of `service` directory. The content of
+this directory should be executables (either shell scripts or binaries). The wingmate
+will run every executable in `service` directory without going into any subdirectory.
+
+Next, `wingmate` will read the `crontab` file. `wingmate` expects the `crontab` file using
+common UNIX crontab file format. Something like this
+
+```shell
+ ┌───────────── minute (0–59)
+ │ ┌───────────── hour (0–23)
+ │ │ ┌───────────── day of the month (1–31)
+ │ │ │ ┌───────────── month (1–12)
+ │ │ │ │ ┌───────────── day of the week (0–6) (Sunday to Saturday)
+ │ │ │ │ │ 
+ │ │ │ │ │
+ │ │ │ │ │
+ * * * * * <commad or shell script or binary>
+```
+
+The command part only support simple command and arguments. Shell expression is not supported
+yet. It is recommended to write a shell script and put the path to shell script in
+the command part.
+
+# Appendix
+## Wingmate PID Proxy binary
+
+`wingmate` works by monitoring its direct children process. When it sees one of its children
+exited, it will start the child process again.
+
+Sometimes you find some services work by running in the background. It means it forks a new 
+process, disconnect the new child from terminal, exit the parent process, and continue 
+running in the child process. This kind of service usually write its background process
+PID in a pid file.
+
+To monitor the background services, `wingmate` utilizes `wmpidproxy`. `wmpidproxy` runs
+in foreground in-place of the background service. It also periodically check whether the
+background service is still running, in current implementation it checks every second.
+
+```shell
+wmpidproxy --pid-file <path to pid file> -- <background service binary/start script>
+```
+#### Example
+Running sshd background with `wingmate` and `wmpidproxy`: [here](example/ssh-docker)
+
+#### Note
+
+It is recommended to configure services to run in foreground if they support it. When services
+running in foreground, they are running as direct children process of `wingmate`.
+`wingmate` monitors children process effectively. Whenever a child process exited/terminated,
+`wingmate` will start it again quickly. Running in foreground also removes the overhead of running
+`wmpidproxy` together with the service.
+
+## Wingmate Exec binary
+
+`wingmate` runs all the services as its children using the same `uid`, `gid`, and in the
+same process group. You can use `wmexec` to run service in different `uid`, `gid`, or make
+the service process as its own process group leader.
+
+#### Syntax
+
+```shell
+wmexec [--user <uid>[:<gid>]] [--setsid] -- <target executable>
+```
+| Option   | Parameter | Description                                                                                              |
+|----------|-----------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| --user   | uid[:gid] | Set the real user ID and the real group id. Uid and Gid can be either in numeric form or in name form    |
+| --setsid |           | Set the process become the leader of its own process group, effectively detaching from parent's terminal |
+
+#### Example
+
+You can find example for `wmexec` in [here](docker/alpine/etc/wingmate) and [here](docker/bookworm/etc/wingmate)
