Launch python transformation engine as subprocess of nodejs?

Hi,

I see that the "launch" script starts both a nodejs process and a python process in parallel. From what I understand, the nodejs process, which is the "main" process, needs the python process, but not the other way around, so wouldn't it be better to launch the python process as a child process from nodejs? In this way, the AToMPM backend can be understood as a single nodejs process, and killing it will also kill the python process. It will also make it unnecessary to have a complex launch script.

Best regards,
Joeri

Start by reading the launch script and tracing how the Node.js backend and Python transformation process are started and stopped. Check the process-lifecycle behavior described in the issue, then define completion as the backend being launched as one Node.js process with the Python process lifecycle handled consistently when it exits.
