Basic Usage

Make your application inherit from DaemonApplication.

public class ExampleDaemon extends DaemonApplication<Configuration>

In your application's main method, call daemonize() before run(args).

new ExampleDaemon().daemonize().run(args);

You're all set! Your application will launch as a daemon process into the background.

For a working example, fork the example project.
