# Demonize
Demonize / Daemonize With Node.js

This library will demonize a program and return the child process. It can also create a standalone demonizable script that can be started just like a bash script `./demon.js`

## Examples
```js
const Demonize = require('demonize');

const options = {
	arg: 'server.js',
	env: { PORT: 8000 },
	err: __dirname + '/out.log',
	out: __dirname + '/out.log'
};

const child = await Demonize.it(options);
console.log(child);
```
```js
const Demonize = require('demonize');

const options = {
	env: { PORT: 8000 },
	arg: ['server.js'],
	err: __dirname + '/out.log',
	out: __dirname + '/out.log',

	fd: '/Path/To/Add/Generated/demon.js'
};

await Demonize.generate(options);
console.log('Created standalone demonize script');
```

## API
