.TH runsv 8
.SH NAME
runsv \- starts and monitors a service and optionally an appendant log
service
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B runsv
.I service
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I service
must be a directory.
.P
.B runsv
switches to the directory
.I service
and starts ./run.
If ./run exits and ./finish exists,
.B runsv
starts ./finish.
If ./finish doesn't exist or ./finish exits,
.B runsv
restarts ./run.
.P
If ./run or ./finish exit immediately,
.B runsv
waits a second before starting ./finish or restarting ./run.
.P
If the file
.IR service /down
exists,
.B runsv
does not start ./run immediately.
The control interface (see below) can be used to start the service and to
give other commands to
.BR runsv .
.P
If the directory
.IR service /log
exists,
.B runsv
creates a pipe, redirects
.IR service /run's
and
.IR service /finish's
standard output to the pipe, switches to the directory
.IR service /log
and starts ./run (and ./finish) exactly as described above for the
.I service
directory.
The standard input of the log service is redirected to read from the pipe.
.P
.B runsv
maintains status information in a binary format compatible to
.BR supervise (8)
in
.IR service /supervise/status
and
.IR service /log/supervise/status,
and in a human-readable format in
.IR service /supervise/stat,
.IR service /log/supervise/stat,
.IR service /supervise/pid,
.IR service /log/supervise/pid.
.SH CONTROL
The named pipes
.IR service /supervise/control,
and (optionally)
.IR service /log/supervise/control
are provided to give commands to
.BR runsv .
You can use
.BR runsvctrl (8)
to control the service or just write one of the following characters to
the named pipe:
.TP
.B u
Up.
If the service is not running, start it.
If the service stops, restart it.
.TP
.B d
Down.
If the service is running, send it a TERM signal, and then a CONT signal.
If ./run exits, start ./finish if it exists.
After it stops, do not restart service.
.TP
.B o
Once.
If the service is not running, start it.
Do not restart it if it stops.
.TP
.B p
Pause.
If the service is running, send it a STOP signal.
.TP
.B c
Continue.
If the service is running, send it a CONT signal.
.TP
.B h
Hangup.
If the service is running, send it a HUP signal.
.TP
.B a
Alarm.
If the service is running, send it a ALRM signal.
.TP
.B i
Interrupt.
If the service is running, send it a INT signal.
.TP
.B q
Quit.
If the service is running, send it a QUIT signal.
.TP
.B 1
User-defined 1.
If the service is running, send it a USR1 signal.
.TP
.B 2
User-defined 2.
If the service is running, send it a USR2 signal.
.TP
.B t
Terminate.
If the service is running, send it a TERM signal.
.TP
.B k
Kill.
If the service is running, send it a KILL signal.
.TP
.B x \fRor \fBe
Exit.
If the service is running, send it a TERM signal, and then a CONT signal.
Do not restart the service.
If the service is down, and no log service exists,
.B runsv
exits.
If the service is down and a log service exists,
.B runsv
closes the standard input of the log service, and waits for it to terminate.
If the log service is down,
.B runsv
exits.
This command is ignored if it is given to
.IR service /log/supervise/control.
.P
Example: to send a TERM signal to the socklog-unix service, either do
# runsvctrl term /var/service/socklog-unix
or
# echo \-n t >/var/service/socklog-unix/supervise/control
.P
If
.BR echo (1)
on your systems does not provide the \-n option, leave it out,
.B runsv
ignores unknown characters written to the control pipe.
.BR echo (1)
usually blocks if no
.B runsv
process is running in the service directory.
.SH CUSTOMIZE CONTROL
For each control character
.I c
sent to the control pipe,
.B runsv
first checks if
.I service\fR/control/\fIc
exists and is executable.
If so, it starts
.I service\fR/control/\fIc
and waits for it to terminate, before interpreting the command.
If the program exits with return code 0,
.B runsv
refrains from sending the service the corresponding signal.
The command
.I o
is always considered as command
.IR u .
The control of the optional log service cannot be customized.
.SH SIGNALS
If
.B runsv
receives a TERM signal, it acts as if the character x was written to the
control pipe.
.SH EXIT CODES
.B runsv
exits 111 on an error on startup or if another
.B runsv
is running in
.IR service .
.P
.B runsv
exits 0 if it was told to exit.
