Erlang：释放rebar3，先开始光束吗？

Question

I am trying to utilize a new feature in 19.3 per this question: Erlang: does the application behavior trap SIGTERM?

My understanding is that sending SIGTERM to BEAM now triggers a graceful shutdown in Erlang 19.3+

I start my application in Docker using the ENTRYPOINT ./_build/default/rel/myapp/bin/myapp where ./_build/default/rel/myapp/bin/myapp is generated from rebar3 release

When I do this in Docker, myapp gets PID1 and BEAM seems to gets another PID.

Is there a different set of commands I can run such that BEAM gets PID1 and myapp gets loaded from there? Something like

./start_beam; ./start_my_app_via_beam ./start_beam; ./start_my_app_via_beam ?

I need this because docker stop sends SIGTERM to the PID1. I need that to be BEAM. Using the above entrypoint, here is what happens in the container": top PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 1 root 20 0 4340 644 556 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.01 myapp 14 root 20 0 3751188 50812 6660 S 0.0 0.6 0:00.48 beam.smp 18 root 20 0 11492 116 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 epmd 31 root 20 0 4220 680 604 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.10 erl_child_setup 53 root 20 0 11456 944 840 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 inet_gethost 54 root 20 0 17764 1660 1504 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 inet_gethost 55 root 20 0 20252 3208 2720 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.02 bash 61 root 20 0 21956 2468 2052 R 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 top

Currently, to get around this, I have this horrendous beast:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
echo "if testing locally send SIGTERM to $$"

term_handler() {
  echo "Stopping the Erlang VM gracefully"
  #/usr/local/Cellar/erlang/19.1/lib/erlang/lib/erl_interface-
3.9.1/bin/erl_call -c myapp -s -a 'init stop' -n 'myapp@localhost'
  /usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/erl_interface-3.9.2/bin/erl_call -c myapp -s -a 'init stop' -n 'myapp@localhost'
  echo "Erlang VM Stopped"
}

trap term_handler SIGQUIT SIGINT SIGTERM

./_build/default/rel/myapp/bin/myapp & 
PID=$!

echo "Erlang VM Started"
#wait $PID
while kill -0 $PID ; do wait $PID ; EXIT_STATUS=$? ; done
echo "Exiting Wrapper."
exit $EXIT_STATUS
```

And then I do `ENTRYPOINT : ["./thisscript"]`

This beast becomes PID 1, and it finds the correct thing to kill after that.

I'm trying to get rid of this script.
