satellite(1)

📦 version 1.0.0, in alpine 3.24

💅 satellite(1) — like, the gemini server era ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the satellite(1) page, straight out of the General Commands Manual 🎀 — yes that's the manual name, we're fancy like that. buckle up, this one's short and sweet and honestly iconic for it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

satellite — serve files over the gemini protocol 🦋

like, it's a whole gemini server. that's the vibe. no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

satellite [-c config-file]

that's it. that's the whole thing. one optional flag. main character energy honestly 👑

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so here's the tea 🔥 — Satellite is a gemini server. periodt.

it requires a config file (not optional, bestie, it will not run on vibes alone 😭). by default that config file gets read from /etc/satellite.toml — that's the default path, memorise it — unless the user provides a -c flag, in which case you're overriding it with your own path 🧚

so: no config file = no server. the config file is the moment. the config file is the whole personality. iykyk 💜

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -c path — alternate path to read the config file 🌈 like, instead of the default /etc/satellite.toml, you point it at path and it slays from there instead. literally that's the whole flag. ate and left no crumbs 🍓

🌟 SEE ALSO 🌟

💀 reminder bestie: -c takes a path argument, so don't just yeet the flag alone into your terminal and expect magic. give it a path. the path is the point 🙈

and that's the page!! 🌸 written up all cute in the General Commands Manual, dated 2026-10-14, filed under satellite(1) — mwah 💖 catch you in the next manpage, bestie 🎀🫶
