✨ isochron-daemon(8) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the ISOCHRON manual page for isochron-daemon 💖 no cap, this one's short and sweet.

🌸 NAME 🌸

isochron-daemon — start an isochron program that just… waits 💅 for management commands

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

isochron daemon [OPTIONS]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So basically this command spins up a long-running process that sits there listening for connections from an isochron orchestrator 👑. The daemon is literally just vibing until the orchestrator slides into its DMs with further instructions, and then it can receive those instructions. It's giving "I'm ready whenever you are" energy 🫶.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -h, --help — prints the short help message and then dips (exits). Iconic, low effort, we love her 🎀
  • -l, --log-file <PATH> — after becoming a daemon, the program can redirect its standard output and standard error into the text file you put here 📝. Optional — defaults to /dev/null (so, silence, ngl 🙈).
  • -p, --pid-file <PATH> — after spawning a daemon process, the main program overwrites the text file you give it here with a single line containing a decimal number that represents the process ID of the daemon 🔢. Optional — defaults to no PID file being created.
  • -P, --stats-port <NUMBER> — specify the TCP port the daemon program is listening on for incoming connections 📡. This socket is used for management and statistics. Optional — defaults to port 5000 ⭐
  • -S, --stats-address <NUMBER> — specify the IP address the daemon program is listening on for incoming connections 🌐. This socket is used for management and statistics. It supports binding to a given network device using the address%device syntax (example: --stats-address ::%vrf0). Optional — defaults to ::, with a fallback to 0.0.0.0 if IPv6 is not available 🔥

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

To start and then stop a daemon and view its log file, do exactly this bestie:

isochron daemon \
    --log-file isochron.log \
    --pid-file isochron.pid \
    --stats-port 5001
tail -F isochron.log &
kill $(pidof tail)
kill $(cat isochron.pid)
