✨ NAME ✨

Catalyst::Restarter::Forking β€” the icon that forks and restarts the child process πŸ’…

okay so real talk, this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 3pm (that's the Perl module manual section bestie, iykyk). And the name of the whole entire serve is Catalyst::Restarter::Forking β€” say it with your chest πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So basically, this class does the whole fork-and-chill thing: it forks and runs the server inside a child process. That's the vibe. The parent just sits there, being the main character πŸ‘‘

And when it needs to restart? Not me being dramatic but β€” it kills the child πŸ’€ and then creates a new one. That's it. That's the whole personality. Old child out, new child in, no notes, no cap. It's giving "out with the old, in with the new" but make it process management 🌸
