gokill

'gokill' is a tool that completes some actions when a certain event occurs. actions can vary from shuting down the machine to sending mails over erasing data. actions can be triggert by certain conditions like specific outcomes of unix comands or not having internet connection.

actions and triggers should be easy to extend and handled like plugins. they also should be self documenting. every action and trigger should be testable at anytime as a 'dry-run'. actions can have a 'stage' defined. the lowest stage is started first, and only when all actions on that stage are finished next stage is triggered

gokill should run as daemon. config should be read from /etc/somename/config.json
