JAMEICA(1)

✨ JAMEICA ✨

okay so bestie, jameica is a run-time system for Java application — that's literally the whole name, and it's giving "the cool older sibling who runs all your Java plugins for you". 💅 This is the jameica page from the General Commands Manual, and I'm gonna walk you through every single flag, no skips, no cap. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jameica [OPTIONS]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you run jameica and you hand it some options. periodt. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so jameica is a runtime environment for Java applications — and here's the cute part — those applications are implemented as plugins. 👑

like, it's the whole stage, the lights, the little velvet curtain, and your plugins are the main characters performing on it. iconic behavior fr fr. 🌈

💖 OPTIONS 💖

here's the full summary of every option jameica supports, bestie. all of them. i would never gatekeep. 🎀

• -c, --client — start jameica in client mode, which means with a user interface. you get the pretty visuals. 👀✨
• -d, --server — start jameica in server mode, which means without a user interface. it's headless, it's mysterious, it's doing the work in silence. 💀
• -f, --file [dir] — use dir as the user directory. tell it where to live. 🏠
• -h, --help — show a german help text. ja, deutsch. no, you don't get to pick the language. 🙈
• -l, --ignore-lock — ignore existing lock files. lock files are saying "someone's already in here" and this flag is saying "idc bestie, move". ⚠️ use with intention.
• -n, --noninteractive — detach jameica from the terminal. heads up though: this option is ignored in client mode. so if you're in client mode, it does literally nothing. 😭
• -o, --force-password — ignore the master password specified via the command line interface. it just... pretends that password isn't there. 🫣
• -p, --password [pw] — use pw as the master password. your little secret, passed right on the command line. 💜
• -s, --standalone — start jameica in standalone mode with user interface. this is the default, so if you change nothing, this is what you get. queen of being the fallback. 👑
• -u, --username [user] — use user as the username. tell it who's asking. 🎀
• -w, --passwordfile [file] — read master password from file. for when you don't wanna type the secret out loud in front of everyone. 🤫

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

the vibes your shell can set before jameica even wakes up:

• JAVA_HOME — specify an alternate Java environment. like, "hey, use this Java, not the other one." 🧚
• JAVA_OPTS — specify Java options. for example, to use a HTTP proxy server with this program, set this environment variable to something like:

JAVA_OPTS="-Dhttp.proxyHost=yourProxyURL"

...before starting jameica. set it first, launch second. order matters, bestie. ⭐
