💅 COOLFORKIT-CAPS 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the COOLFORKIT(1) page — user commands edition, we're literally in the big leagues now 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

coolforkit-caps — the utility that spawns LOK instances for Collabora Online. that's it, that's the vibe 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

coolforkit-caps OPTIONS

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so this is a single-threaded process that spawns LibreOfficeKit (LOK) instances. yes, single-threaded, she's focused, she's got main character energy, she does not need a whole squad of threads 👑

this particular version of coolforkit, aka the caps girlie, uses capabilities to create document jails. specifically these three icons:

  • CAP_CHOWN
  • CAP_FOWNER
  • CAP_SYS_CHROOT

that's the whole trick, no cap 🫶

⚠️ note, and this is important bestie: running this standalone is not possible. like, she will not answer your DMs directly. it's spawned by coolwsd and is controlled via a pipe. so don't try to launch her by yourself, it's giving undefined-situationship and it just won't work 😭
