💖 PEVENT(1) 💖

okay bestie, listen up — this one lives in the OpenPMIx manual, and it's genuinely one of the cutest little tools in the whole suite. Let's get into it ✨

✨ NAME ✨

pevent — inject specified event into the system

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

pevent [options] <EVENT>

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically? pevent requests that the specified event be passed to processes in the given range. That's the whole vibe. You point it at an event, you point it at a range, and it goes and delivers the news to everybody in that range 💅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

pevent accepts the following options, and no we are NOT skipping any of them:

  • -h | --help <arg0> — Show help message. If the optional argument is not provided, then a generalized help message similar to the information provided here is returned. If an argument is provided, then a more detailed help message for that specific command line option is returned. (Translation: ask with no arg0 and you get the broad strokes; hand it a specific option and it gives you the ✨detailed✨ tea on that one.)
  • -v | --verbose — Enable debug output. (Not me turning this on immediately every single time 🙈)
  • -V | --version — Print version and exit. Iconic behavior, honestly.
  • --pmixmca <arg0> <arg1> — Set MCA parameter value
  • --pid <arg0> — PID of the daemon to which we should connect (int => PID or file:<file> for file containing the PID
  • --tmpdir <arg0> — Set the root for the session directory tree
  • --range <arg0> — Range of event to be sent. If not provided, the request will default to the PMIX_GLOBAL range. (So if you're too lazy to specify — no judgement — it just goes global. main character energy fr.)

👑 EXIT STATUS 👑

Returns 0 if the event was successfully sent, a non-zero error code if otherwise.

So like. 0 = slay. Anything else = it's giving error, go read the output 💀
