Inspired by #41, but more minimalistic, this add a small
deacon servermode that opens a unix socket in its working directory.Then running more commands like
deacond --use-server filter ...will forward all arguments to the server, which will process them.Does not support networking, nor stdin/stdout (TODO add some checks for this?), since all IO is done by the server.
As said before, main benefit here is that you don't have to wait for the index to load on each invocation.
Limitations:
deacon_server_socketfile manually between runsMaybe we should restrict the commands sent to the server to only
Filter? All index construction/modification commands aren't cached anyway.TODO: pass the
-t THREADSflag to the server invocation and use that instead of whatever the first client passed.
