How i can run it as daemon?

Hello! Centrifugo can not daemonize itself. You can use other daemonize tools such as supervisord, upstart etc. Depending on operating system and linux distribution you are using.

We are using Centos and run Centrifugo using supervisord or just built-in daemon function (init.d)

Yea, init.d scripts awesome! Thanks!

You are welcome! There is also discussion in Go mailing list about program daemonization. And general opinion is let external daemon program do this.

@aleksraiden if you use Debian/Ubuntu here is init script

vagrant@ubuntu-14:/var/www/centrifugo$ cat /etc/init.d/centrifugo
CENTRIFUGO=centrifugo
CENTRIFUGO_ARGS="--config=/etc/centrifugo/config.json --log_file=/var/log/centrifugo.log"
PIDFILE=/var/run/centrifugo.pid
case "$1" in
  start)
    echo -n "Starting Centrifugo"
    start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE --make-pidfile --background --exec $CENTRIFUGO -- $CENTRIFUGO_ARGS
    echo "."
    ;;
  stop)
    echo -n "Stopping Centrifugo"
    start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE
    echo "."
    ;;
  restart)
    $0 stop
    $0 start
    ;;
  *)
        echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/centrifugo {start|stop|restart}"
        exit 1
esac

exit 0
