NAME SysV::Init::Service - Class for SysV init service manipulation. SYNOPSIS use SysV::Init::Service; my $obj = SysV::Init::Service->new(%parameters); my @commands = $obj->commands; my $name = $obj->name; my $exit_code = $obj->start; my $exit_code = $obj->status; my $exit_code = $obj->stop; METHODS "new" my $obj = SysV::Init::Service->new(%parameters); Constructor. * "service" Service. Default value is undef. It is required. * "service_dir" Service directory. Default value is '/etc/init.d'. "commands" my @commands = $obj->commands; Get service commands. Be avare, command might not print any information to stdout in some configuration (rewrited /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh routines to blank code for quiet output). Returns array of possible commands alphabetically sorted. "name" my $name = $obj->name; Get service name. Returns string with service name. "start" my $exit_code = $obj->start; Run service start command. Returns exit code. "status" my $exit_code = $obj->status; Run service status command and return exit code. Returns exit code. "stop" my $exit_code = $obj->stop; Run service stop command. Returns exit code. ERRORS new(): Parameter 'service' is required. Service '%s' doesn't present. Service with .sh suffix doesn't possible. From Class::Utils::set_params(): Unknown parameter '%s'. start(): Problem with service '%s' start. STDERR: %s Exit code: %s status(): Problem with service '%s' status. STDERR: %s Exit code: %s stop(): Problem with service '%s' stop. STDERR: %s Exit code: %s THEORY Exit codes of init.d script in status command. see Debian Wheezy /lib/lsb/init-functions pidofproc() and status_of_proc() routines. Exit codes: 0 - Program is running (pidfile exist). 0 - Program is running, but not owned by this user (pidfile exist). 0 - Program is running (pidfile doesn't exist and is defined PID). 1 - Program is dead (pidfile exist). 3 - Program is not running (pidfile doesn't exist and is defined PID). 3 - Program probably stopped (pidfile doesn't exist and is defined PID). 3 - Almost certain program is not running (pidfile doesn't exist). 4 - PID file not readable, hence status is unknown. 4 - Unable to determine status (pidfile doesn't exist). EXAMPLE use strict; use warnings; use File::Spec::Functions qw(catfile); use File::Temp qw(tempfile tempdir); use IO::Barf qw(barf); use SysV::Init::Service; # Temporary directory. my $temp_dir = tempdir('CLEANUP' => 1); # Create fake service. my $fake = <<'END'; #!/bin/sh echo "[ ok ] Usage: /fake {start|stop|status}." END # Save to file. my $fake_file = catfile($temp_dir, 'fake'); barf($fake_file, $fake); # Chmod. chmod 0755, $fake_file; # Service object. my $obj = SysV::Init::Service->new( 'service' => 'fake', 'service_dir' => $temp_dir, ); # Get commands. my @commands = $obj->commands; # Print commands to output. map { print $_."\n"; } @commands; # Clean. unlink $fake_file; # Output: # start # stop # status DEPENDENCIES Capture::Tiny, Class::Utils, English, Error::Pure, File::Spec::Functions.
