Goreman is a Go clone of the foreman tool that runs multiple processes defined in a Procfile, forwarding signals and displaying their combined output. It also supports RPC-based control of managed processes via the `goreman run` command.

Use cases

  • run multiple processes from a Procfile locally
  • manage web and worker processes during development
  • forward signals to child processes
  • start and stop named processes via RPC
  • replace foreman with a single Go binary

When to choose

  • you want a foreman-like process manager without Ruby
  • you develop Go and want a single-binary tool
  • you need signal forwarding to all managed processes

When to avoid

  • you need container-based process orchestration
  • you require foreman's full feature set or export options
  • you need production-grade process supervision
