NAME
initsvc - API for starting and stopping system daemons
DESCRIPTION
initsvc is provided by the InitMe init system as a method of controlling system services. Starting and stopping services requires root access.
Configuration is stored in /etc/initsvc.cfg.
METHODS
start(service:string[, handler:function]): boolean or nil, string
Start service service. Looks for /lib/init/services/service.lua.
list(): table
Returns a table of services, and whether they are running. Each entry is a sub-table with the fields name:string and running:boolean.
stop(service:string): boolean or nil, string
Attempts to stop service service. May have compatibility with OpenOS services.
enable(service:string): boolean or nil, string
Attempts to enable service service.
disable(service:string)
Disable service script.
NOTES
[Until 2020.7.09] Due to the manner in which initsvc's configuration is formatted, a script and a service cannot have the same name. This may change in the future.
[2020.7.09] This has been fixed. Startup scripts are now run in order, before services, from /lib/scripts/.
[2020.8.03] Scripts are now run from /lib/init/scripts/.
