Async::Service

Provides a simple service interface for configuring and running asynchronous services in Ruby.

• Service Management: Define, configure, and run long-running services.
• Container Integration: Built on async-container for robust process management.
• Multiple Services: Run and coordinate multiple services together.
• Automatic Restart: Services automatically restart on failure.
• Graceful Shutdown: Clean shutdown handling with proper resource cleanup.
• Environment Configuration: Configure services with environment variables and settings.

Please see the project documentation for more details.

• Getting Started - This guide explains how to get started with async-service to create and run services in Ruby.

• Service Architecture - This guide explains the key architectural components of async-service and how they work together to provide a clean separation of concerns.

• Best Practices - This guide outlines recommended patterns and practices for building robust, maintainable services with async-service.

Please see the project releases for all releases.
