[Feature Request] Windows support

[sisungo]

Introduction

The Airup supervisor may be ported to Microsoft Windows.

Steps

• [Implement] Port airupfx::sys to Windows
• [Implement] Delete Unix-specific calls out of airupfx::sys

Unresolved Questions

• How to design the use of running a service as another user?
• How to handle forking-kinded services?

[sisungo]

Forking is unsupported on Windows. It's a Unix-only feature.

[sisungo]

Priority: Low.

[sisungo]

Windows have added support of Unix sockets, however, not present in std and tokio yet and needs crates like tokio-windows-uds to use.

Haven't thought how to do this change in the SDK yet.

Yes, macOS is supported. You can build the program directly via cargo build --release on macOS, as indicated in INSTALL.md.

Since macOS does not support customized init program, the daemon runs as a standalone service supervisor on macOS.
