defmodule Membrane.UtilitySupervisor do
  @moduledoc """
  A supervisor responsible for managing utility processes under the pipeline's
  supervision tree.

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

  `Membrane.UtilitySupervisor` does not restart processes. Rather, it ensures that these utility processes
  terminate gracefully when the component that initiated them terminates.

  If a process needs to be able to restart, spawn a dedicated supervisor  under this supervisor.

  ## Example

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