RUMBAD(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

rumbad — bestie, it's literally just rumbad 💅 (yes, that's the whole name, she's minimal like that)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

rumbad

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so first things first, the flags and the positional args, because we're gonna need those:

• --help — shows you how to use it, then dips out. that's it, that's the whole job 🫶
• --version — prints the version info and then leaves the chat. [optional]
• --log-file-path — the file path where the log gets stored. [optional]
• port — a POSITIONAL argument, and she is [required], no cap. you cannot skip her, she will not be skipped.
• stats_filepath — another POSITIONAL argument. [optional] this one's chill like that.

so what is rumbad? it's a daemon for the recc compiler wrapper, periodt. it sits there listening for compilation data protobuf messages that get sent to a UDP port, and then it handles writing them to some persistent storage in batches. that's the whole vibe: listen, batch, write, repeat 🌈

👑 Environment Variables 👑

these are the env vars she reads, and yes every single one of them matters:

• RUMBAD_RECV_BUFFER_SIZE — used to set the value of SO_RCVBUF. heads up though: if you set it to a non-integer value, it gets ignored. it's giving "we tried, we're not going to crash over it" 💀
• RUMBAD_PUBLISH_INTERVAL — the number of seconds to wait between writing batches of messages to the persistent storage. so basically the chill timer between sends ⏳
• RUMBAD_USE_STDOUT — if this is set to non-null, then rumbad will send records to stdout. yep, straight to stdout, main character output behavior 💅

lowkey important: those protobuf messages are just vibing over UDP, so you better already know what you're sending from 🌸

and that's the whole page, bestie — go forth and daemon 🦋
