BABELTRACE2-LIST-P(1)

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

okay so bestie, gather round 🫢 β€” this is the manual page for babeltrace2-list-plugins, from the Babeltrace 2 manual. It's the little command that lists all your Babeltrace 2 plugins and tells you what they're made of. it's giving backstage tour energy πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

babeltrace2 [GENERAL OPTIONS] list-plugins

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The list-plugins command prints a list of available Babeltrace 2 plugins, along with their component classes and their properties. literally a whole roster reveal, no cap πŸ”₯

If you wanna know more about the Babeltrace 2 project and its core concepts (the lore, basically πŸ“–), go read babeltrace2-intro(7).


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

πŸ’œ General

These ones? you can use them before the command name. iconic placement tbh ✨

See babeltrace2(1) for more details.

  • -d, --debug β€” legacy option, bestie: this is equivalent to --log-level=TRACE.
  • -l LVL, --log-level=LVL β€” set the log level of all known Babeltrace 2 loggers to LVL.
  • --omit-home-plugin-path β€” don't search for plugins in $HOME/.local/lib/babeltrace2/plugins.
  • --omit-system-plugin-path β€” don't search for plugins in /usr/local/lib/babeltrace2/plugins.
  • --plugin-path=PATH[:PATH]... β€” add PATH to the list of paths in which plugins can be found.
  • -v, --verbose β€” legacy option, same vibe as the debug one: this is equivalent to --log-level=INFO.

πŸŽ€ Command information

  • -h, --help β€” show the command help and quit. cute and simple πŸ¦‹

🌈 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES 🌈

🧚 Babeltrace 2 library

  • BABELTRACE_EXEC_ON_ABORT=CMDLINE β€” execute the command line CMDLINE, as parsed like a UNIX 98 shell, when any part of the Babeltrace 2 project unexpectedly aborts. 😭

The application only aborts when the executed command returns, ignoring its exit status.

⚠️ this environment variable is ignored when the application has the setuid or the setgid access right flag set.
  • BABELTRACE_TERM_COLOR=(AUTO | NEVER | ALWAYS) β€” force the terminal color support for the babeltrace2(1) program and the project plugins. the available values are:
    • AUTO β€” only emit terminal color codes when the standard output and error streams are connected to a color-capable terminal.
    • NEVER β€” never emit terminal color codes. (sad, but valid πŸ₯²)
    • ALWAYS β€” always emit terminal color codes. slay 🌈
  • BABELTRACE_TERM_COLOR_BRIGHT_MEANS_BOLD=0 β€” set to 0 to emit SGR (see <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code>) codes 90 to 97 for bright colors instead of bold (SGR code 1) and standard color codes (SGR codes 30 to 37).
  • BABELTRACE_PLUGIN_PATH=PATHS β€” set the list of directories, in order, in which dynamic plugins can be found before other directories are considered, to PATHS (colon-separated, or semicolon on Windows).
  • LIBBABELTRACE2_DISABLE_PYTHON_PLUGINS=1 β€” disable the loading of any Babeltrace 2 Python plugin.
  • LIBBABELTRACE2_INIT_LOG_LEVEL=LVL β€” force the initial log level of the Babeltrace 2 library to be LVL.

If this environment variable is set, then it overrides the log level set by the --log-level option for the Babeltrace 2 library logger.

The available values for LVL are:

  • NONE, N β€” logging is disabled.
  • FATAL, F β€” severe errors that lead the execution to abort immediately. this level should be enabled in production.
  • ERROR, E β€” errors that might still allow the execution to continue. usually, once one or more errors are reported at this level, the application, plugin, or library won't perform any more useful task, but it should still exit cleanly. this level should be enabled in production.
  • WARN, WARNING, W β€” unexpected situations which still allow the execution to continue. this level should be enabled in production.
  • INFO, I β€” informational messages that highlight progress or important states of the application, plugins, or library. this level can be enabled in production.
  • DEBUG, D β€” debugging information, with a higher level of details than the TRACE level. this level should NOT be enabled in production. πŸ’€
  • TRACE, T β€” low-level debugging context information. this level should NOT be enabled in production. πŸ’€
  • LIBBABELTRACE2_NO_DLCLOSE=1 β€” make the Babeltrace 2 library leave any dynamically loaded modules (plugins and plugin providers) open at exit. this can be useful for debugging purposes.
  • LIBBABELTRACE2_PLUGIN_PROVIDER_DIR=DIR β€” set the directory from which the Babeltrace 2 library dynamically loads plugin provider shared objects to DIR.

If this environment variable is set, then it overrides the default plugin provider directory.

🐍 Babeltrace 2 Python bindings

  • BABELTRACE_PYTHON_BT2_LOG_LEVEL=LVL β€” force the Babeltrace 2 Python bindings log level to be LVL.

If this environment variable is set, then it overrides the log level set by the --log-level option for the Python bindings logger.

The available values for LVL are:

  • NONE, N β€” logging is disabled.
  • FATAL, F β€” severe errors that lead the execution to abort immediately. this level should be enabled in production.
  • ERROR, E β€” errors that might still allow the execution to continue. usually, once one or more errors are reported at this level, the application, plugin, or library won't perform any more useful task, but it should still exit cleanly. this level should be enabled in production.
  • WARN, WARNING, W β€” unexpected situations which still allow the execution to continue. this level should be enabled in production.
  • INFO, I β€” informational messages that highlight progress or important states of the application, plugins, or library. this level can be enabled in production.
  • DEBUG, D β€” debugging information, with a higher level of details than the TRACE level. this level should NOT be enabled in production. πŸ’€
  • TRACE, T β€” low-level debugging context information. this level should NOT be enabled in production. πŸ’€

πŸ–₯️ CLI

  • BABELTRACE_CLI_LOG_LEVEL=LVL β€” force the log level of the log level babeltrace2 CLI to be LVL. (yes bestie, that sentence says "log level of the log level", I'm just relaying the lore fr fr πŸ™ˆ)

If this environment variable is set, then it overrides the log level set by the --log-level option for the CLI logger.

The available values for LVL are:

  • NONE, N β€” logging is disabled.
  • FATAL, F β€” severe errors that lead the execution to abort immediately. this level should be enabled in production.
  • ERROR, E β€” errors that might still allow the execution to continue. usually, once one or more errors are reported at this level, the application, plugin, or library won't perform any more useful task, but it should still exit cleanly. this level should be enabled in production.
  • WARN, WARNING, W β€” unexpected situations which still allow the execution to continue. this level should be enabled in production.
  • INFO, I β€” informational messages that highlight progress or important states of the application, plugins, or library. this level can be enabled in production.
  • DEBUG, D β€” debugging information, with a higher level of details than the TRACE level. this level should NOT be enabled in production. πŸ’€
  • TRACE, T β€” low-level debugging context information. this level should NOT be enabled in production. πŸ’€
  • BABELTRACE_CLI_WARN_COMMAND_NAME_DIRECTORY_CLASH=0 β€” disable the warning message which babeltrace2-convert(1) prints when you convert a trace with a relative path that's also the name of a babeltrace2 command.
  • BABELTRACE_DEBUG=1 β€” legacy variable: equivalent to setting the --log-level option to TRACE.
  • BABELTRACE_VERBOSE=1 β€” legacy variable: equivalent to setting the --log-level option to INFO.

πŸ“ FILES πŸ“

  • $HOME/.local/lib/babeltrace2/plugins β€” user plugin directory. 🏠
  • /usr/local/lib/babeltrace2/plugins β€” system plugin directory. πŸ–₯️
  • /usr/local/lib/babeltrace2/plugin-providers β€” system plugin provider directory. πŸ–₯️
