Setting up supervisord in Mac OS X

installing_supervisor_macosx.md

Installation

Installing Supervisor on OS X is simple:

sudo pip install supervisor

This assumes you have pip. If you don't:

curl -O http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py
python distribute_setup.py
sudo easy_install pip
sudo pip install supervisor

supervisord -c /path/to/supervisord.conf

Seeing all child processes running

supervisorctl -c /path/to/supervisord.conf

I find it helpful to create an alias in my bash profile for those 2 commands above so that I don't have to manually type -c all the time

echo "alias supervisord='supervisord -c /usr/local/share/supervisor/supervisord.conf'" >> ~/.bash_profile
echo "alias supervisorctl='supervisorctl -c /usr/local/share/supervisor/supervisord.conf'" >> ~/.bash_profile

supervisord.conf

[unix_http_server]
file=/usr/local/share/tmp/supervisor.sock
chmod=0700

[supervisord]
logfile = /usr/local/var/log/supervisord.log
logfile_maxbytes = 50MB
logfile_backups=10
loglevel = info
pidfile = /tmp/supervisord.pid
nodaemon = False
minfds = 1024
minprocs = 200
umask = 022
identifier = supervisor
directory = /usr/local/share/tmp
nocleanup = true
childlogdir = /usr/local/share/tmp

[supervisorctl]
serverurl = unix:///usr/local/share/tmp/supervisor.sock

[rpcinterface:supervisor]
supervisor.rpcinterface_factory = supervisor.rpcinterface:make_main_rpcinterface

[include]
files = /usr/local/share/supervisor/conf.d/*.conf

Ensure supervisord and supervisorctl is run with the -c option and /path/to/supervisord.conf file

Optional plist file to run supervisord on startup on your machine.
