defmodule Membrane.UtilitySupervisor do
  @moduledoc """
  A supervisor that allows to start utility processes under the pipeline's
  supervision tree.

  The supervisor is spawned with each component and can be obtained from
  callback contexts.

  The supervisor never restarts any processes, it just makes sure they
  terminate when the component that started them terminates. If restarting
  is needed, a dedicated supervisor should be spawned under this supervisor, like

      def handle_setup(ctx, state) do
        Membrane.UtilitySupervisor.start_link_child(
          ctx.utility_supervisor,
          {MySupervisor, children: [SomeWorker, OtherWorker], restart: :one_for_one})
      end

  """
  @type t :: pid()
