Easy unix signals handler for Rust projects

simple-signal

A simple wrapper for handling Unix process signals.

Example Usage

extern crate simple_signal;

use simple_signal::{self, Signal};
use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicBool, Ordering};
use std::sync::Arc;

fn main() {
    let running = Arc::new(AtomicBool::new(true));
    let r = running.clone();
    simple_signal::set_handler(&[Signal::Int, Signal::Term], move |_signals| {
        r.store(false, Ordering::SeqCst);
    });
    println!("Waiting for a signal...");
    while running.load(Ordering::SeqCst) {}
    println!("Got it! Exiting...");
}

Building

If you're using a nightly compiler, I suggest building with cargo build --features nightly to avoid the dependency on lazy_static. On stable and beta compilers, just run cargo build.
