Keep function running after main process completes

I would like to keep another Python process (Python function) running, even after the main process is completed. Can this be done without using subprocess?

Currently if I run a non-daemonic process, then it will be automatically joined to the main process.

If I set the process to be daemon, then the child process will exit once the main process is complete.

How do I have another process keep running in the background, even after the main process is complete?

By definition subprocess is what you want , why you want to avoid subprocess? – Ευάγγελος Γρηγορόπουλος Jan 13 '21 at 09:57

Was just having some issues passing python object as the parameters with the subprocess – user1179317 Jan 13 '21 at 14:17
