Baby's first Rust with extra steps (XPC, launchd, and FFI)!
I wondered if there was something similar to LaunchControl that could run in a terminal. I've used chkservice on Linux, but there seems to be no macOS equivalent. I've been dying for an excuse to learn a little bit of Rust (loved n+1 years in a row by the SO developer survey2) -- so this was my chance. Several months later I ended up with launchk. The rest of this post will go over: getting started, interfacing with launchd, a lot of macOS IPC bits, getting stuck, and a bunch of probably questionable Rust FFI stuff.
