Utilities for writing services in Go

godocs.io No modules 100% modules-free.

The following packages are contained in this repository:

  • chroot, a package for chrooting and then determining whether absolute paths can be addressed within that chroot and, if so, converting them appropriately;

  • exepath, a package for determining the absolute path of the executable as invoked, but without resolving symlinks, which can be useful in some circumstances;

  • passwd, a package for determining user and group information on *NIX systems beyond that available in os/user;

  • pidfile, a package for creating and locking PID files on *NIX;

  • setuid, a package for changing UID and GID on *NIX systems, including workarounds for the unfortunate absurdities underlying Linux's implementation of setuid (which means that syscall.Setuid does not work on Linux);

  • systemd, a package for detecting whether systemd is in use and sending status messages to it, in a way that works in a chroot;

  • caps, a package for detecting and dropping capabilities on Linux;

  • dupfd, a package for duplicating file descriptors to a target file descriptor number, which irons out some differences between different *NIX platforms.
