RASQLCHECKCONF(1)

💅 RASQLCHECKCONF 💅

okay bestie, welcome to rasqlcheckconf — she lives in the General Commands Manual section (section 1, obvs), and she's here to vibe-check your argus config against your database. no cap.

---

✨ NAME ✨

rasqlcheckconf — write argus(8) data into mysql database tables. 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rasqlcheckconf [raoptions] [-- filter-expression]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, rasqlcheckconf writes argus data into a mysql database. slay.

her main character function is comparing an argus.conf file with the entries in a MySQL database table. using the same syntax and strategies as literally every other ra* program, rasqlcheckconf creates databases and database tables, as needed, based on the print specification on either the command-line or the .rarc file. it's giving consistency, periodt. 💖

by default, rasqlcheckconf will compare /etc/argus.conf with the entries in the argusConf table in the argus database. if the database is different, rasqlcheckconf will return a non-zero RETURN VALUE (yes, drama, we love a nonzero exit). if the -M replace option is provided, rasqlcheckconf will replace the database table with the items in the argus.conf file. ✨

and using the standard ra* client command line options, you can specify particular argus.conf files, and modify the database and table names used for comparison. your config, your rules, bestie. 💅

🎀 RASQLCHECKCONF SPECIFIC OPTIONS 🎀

rasqlcheckconf, like all ra based clients, supports a number of ra options. 👑

not me telling you there are no rasqlcheckconf(1) specific options. that's the whole vibe. she's running the standard ra* playbook, no extra sprinkle. 😭

🌈 INVOCATION 🌈

💜 this one compares the defaults

this invocation compares the default /etc/argus.conf configuration with the default database and table, or ones that are specified in the users .rarc file.

rasqlcheckconf

💜 this one targets a specific table

this invocation compares the default /etc/argus.conf configuration with a specific database table.

rasqlcheckconf -r mysql://root@localhost/argus/argusConf

💜 this one is the overachiever

this invocation compares an alternate argus.conf configuration with a specific database table, and replaces the database entries if there are differences.

rasqlcheckconf -f argus.conf -r mysql://root@localhost/argus/argusConf -M replace

---

⭐ RETURN VALUES ⭐

rasqlcheckconf exits with one of the following values, and honestly, each one is a whole mood:

• 0 — All entries matched. 🎉 she ate, everything lines up, no notes.
• 1 — The contents of the database table did not match the configuration file. 💀
• 2 — The database table was empty or did not exist. 🙈 the table said "who?"
