✨ cdist-type__service ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the cdist-type__service(7) page 💖 this is the one where we do stuff to system services. that's it. that's the vibe. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

cdist-type__service — run an action on a system service 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically this type lets you run an action against a system service. that's the whole thing. one action, one service, no drama, no cap. 🎀

💖 REQUIRED PARAMETERS 💖

  • action — an arbitrary parameter that gets passed as the action. usually you're gonna be giving it 'start', 'stop', 'reload' or 'restart'. those are the classics, the main character four. ✨
lowkey important: this one is required. no action, no service-doing. periodt.

🌈 OPTIONAL PARAMETERS 🌈

None. literally none. not a single one. the void. the empty set. 🫶

🎀 BOOLEAN PARAMETERS 🎀

None. also none. also the void. we keep it minimal here bestie, it's giving minimalist queen. 💅

⭐ EXAMPLES ⭐

here's how you actually use it, no gatekeeping:

# Restart nginx service.
__service nginx --action restart

# Stop postfix service.
__service postfix --action stop

see? restart for nginx, stop for postfix. chef's kiss. 🔥
