Installation

Requires: a Debian/Ubuntu version of linux and a Bash version ~4.4. bash-sys installed.

  1. Download a release or clone this repository.
  2. Use scripts/install.sh to automatically install the application in the /opt/oju/bash project folder.
  3. If needed, add PATH="$PATH:/opt/oju/bash/bin" to the .profile files.

Features

This tool is a wrapper to the 'system and service manager' (systemd or SysV) functions. It allows you to disable, start or stop a list of services with just one command. The services are defined in the config.sh file.

Usage: manageservices.sh [options] command

command <disable | start | stop>
  disable   Disable services from starting automatically.
  start     Start services.
  stop      Stop services.

options
  -h | --help           Show this help.
  -l | --active-log     Log mode. Content outputs are logged in a file.
  -n | --no-display     Display mode. Nothing is displayed in terminal.
  -t | --trace          Display var and constants.
  -v | --version        Show the version.
  -w | --wait           Wait user. Wait for user input between actions.

Test

As this tool is just a wrapper to the system and service manager functions, I didn't write any line of 'unit test' code. Sorry.
