Description

Describe the Feature You Want

Not all commands handle signals properly.

When using local_resource(serve_cmd), there could be a way to add custom shutdown logic that's more complex than normal process signal handling

Current Behavior

Currently, tilt creates a process group for each serve_cmd.

When it's time to shutdown, Tilt sends a sigint then a sigkill to that process group.

Why Do You Want This?

This came up when someone was trying to run localstack

docker run --rm --name sqs -p 4566:4566 -e "SERVICES=sqs" localstack/localstack

Fortunately, localstack has a workaround for this use-case so that it handles signals properly!

docker run --rm --name sqs -p 4566:4566 -e "SERVICES=sqs" -e "SET_TERM_HANDLER=true" localstack/localstack

note the SET_TERM_HANDLER bit

Though this is not an option for some containers.

Research direction

Start at the local_resource(serve_cmd) implementation and trace how Tilt creates process groups and sends SIGINT and SIGKILL during shutdown. Review the existing signal-handling path, then define and implement custom shutdown behavior for cases such as containers that do not handle signals; done means the behavior is testable for the localstack scenario.
