svstat(8)

✨ NAME ✨

svstat — bestie, this is the little icon that prints the status of services monitored by supervise(8). 👑

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

svstat services

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so listen, services is literally just any number of arguments, and every single argument names a directory. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 🫶

for each directory you hand it, svstat prints one human-readable line — yes, one per directory, no cap — and that line tells you:

• whether supervise(8) is successfully running in that directory (vibe check: passed or not 💅)
• the status information maintained by supervise(8), reported right there for you 🌸

so if you've got a whole squad of service directories, just pass them all and get a whole stack of lines back. iconic behavior honestly. ✨
