Supervisor plugin to monitor for file activity and restart program on inactivity

This sound silly, but I have an infinite long running ffmpeg job, which converts a video stream on the fly. The file output stills at a certain time but supervisor does not detect the ffmpeg as crashed.

Installation:

pip3 install git+https://github.com/Inqbus/superinactive

Configuration:

[program:ffmpeg]
command=ffmpeg ......  -o /home/volker/out.stream

[program:superinactive]
command=superinactive /home/volker/out.stream 10 ffmpeg

Command line options:

usage: superinactive.py [-h] [-g GROUP] [-a] path timeout [prog [prog ...]]

file monitoring:
  path                  file path to monitor for inactivity
