2013-12-29Rename runscript to openrc-runWilliam Hubbs
This was requested by Debian, because the minicom software, which is available on Debian and other distros, has a binary named runscript. We are keeping a backward compatibility symlink for now, but this allows Debian or any other distro to safely remove the symlink. X-Gentoo-Bug: 494220 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494220
2013-12-12Rename the rc binary to openrcWilliam Hubbs
Debian requested this rename due to the "rc" binary conflicting with the "rc" binary from the plan 9 shell. We also add a deprecation warning to the binary when it is run as rc to encourage users to switch to openrc instead.

2013-08-24man/runscript.8: minor grammar fixesWilliam Hubbs
2013-08-15fix typo on runscript man pageWilliam Hubbs
The example code had an invalid checkpath option (--dir instead of --directory) and a mode that does not make sense for directories (664 instead of 775). X-Gentoo-Bug: 481034 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481034
2013-08-13Clarify the documentation about the restart functionWilliam Hubbs
Restart has never been able to be overridden in OpenRc, but there is a way to make your service script behave differently when restart is being executed. X-Gentoo-Bug: 480866 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480866
2013-03-20runscript: update documentation for the provide functionWilliam Hubbs
Explain that virtual services take precedence over real services and recommend that virtual services have different names from real services. Reported-by: me@2gw.net X-Gentoo-Bug: 461818 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461818
2012-10-16Revert "Prepare for real "restart" support"Christian Ruppert
This reverts commit c5bb6829d00a4034f7294aa4af79d5d114572ac1. That was meant for my local devel branch :)
2012-10-12Prepare for real "restart" supportChristian Ruppert
2012-09-25small runscript man page cleanupsWilliam Hubbs
2012-09-25Drop restart_pre/restart_postWilliam Hubbs
By design, restart is hard coded to run stop followed by start along with all of the pre/post functions associated with them. Restart doesn't need its own pre/post functions since it is possible to make any function in an init script behave differently for a restart command by testing against the RC_CMD environment variable.
2012-09-23Clarify how to handle restart processingWilliam Hubbs
The Gentoo developer manual covers how to handle restarts in init scripts, but this was not officially covered in OpenRc's Documentation. This commit adds an example to the runscript man page that shows how this works.
2012-09-22Add restart_pre/restart_post support, also document RC_CMDChristian Ruppert
2012-09-09add RC_PREFIX environment variableWilliam Hubbs
This will be used by init scripts which want to be able to run in a Gentoo Prefix installation. RC_PREFIX will contain the prefix offset.
2012-07-26Bring Back prefix supportWilliam Hubbs
We now have a team member who is interested in OpenRC on prefix, so I am bringing it back to the main tree.
2012-03-24Document the required_dirs and required_files variablesWilliam Hubbs
2012-03-03Runscript: allow extra_commands to be run in chrootsWilliam Hubbs
The commands defined in the extra_commands variable do not depend on whether the service is stopped or started, so it is valid to run them in chroot environments. Also, add a note to the runscript man page about the commands in extra_commands being able to run whether or not the service is started.

2012-02-21Remove prefix supportWilliam Hubbs
I spoke with the prefix team sometime back and was told that they do not have an interest in using OpenRC on prefix systems.
2012-02-19Clarify the documentation about the reboot runlevelWilliam Hubbs
The reboot runlevel does exist, but it gets remapped to the shutdown runlevel internally.
2012-02-19Document the RC_REBOOT variableWilliam Hubbs
2012-01-26Add -W/--writable function to checkpathChristian Ruppert
Checkpath -W will use access(3p) to determine whether or not a path is writable. This is more accurate than test(1p) because it also takes into account whether or not the filesystem is mounted read-only. Modified by William Hubbs to add the man page update.
2012-01-22WhitespaceChristian Ruppert
2012-01-17Use the "--make-pidfile" when command_background is usedChristian Ruppert
The start-stop-daemon "--make-pidfile" option is now used by default when using command_background, this requires a pidfile to be specified. Document command_background option.

2012-01-09rc/checkpath: tmpfiles.d backend creation codeRobin H. Johnson
This commit provides the checkpath applet with feature parity to systemd's tmpfiles.c create_item function. Very similarly to the systemd function, it does NOT do any of the cleanup work in this function. Signed-off-by: Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>

2011-12-31Add "retry" option for the stop() templateChristian Ruppert

- Clarify that start_stop_daemon_args is only used when starting a daemon. - fix several typos.

2011-12-11Allow init scripts to be executed with a relative pathWilliam Hubbs
This was a regression that was caused by the fix for http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350910. I am reverting the commit that we said fixed that bug and re-opening it.

2011-11-19make shell math operations style more succulentMike Frysinger
Convert the style: var=$((${var} + 1)) to: : $(( var += 1 )) The latter is easier to read imo. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
2011-11-16add support for extra_stopped_commandsWilliam Hubbs
2011-07-31Improve processing of service directories and conf.d filesWilliam Hubbs
symbolic links should not be followed in an attempt to work out the name of the service we are running. Also, @sysconfdir@/conf.d should be tried as a backup directory for configuration files. I would like to thank Robin Johnson for his input on this change. X-Gentoo-Bug: 350910 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350910
