This is now allowed. I added another DBus-Interface |
| 14 |
(org.gentoo.catapult.Admin) which currently holds the two methods |
| 15 |
"stop()" and "ping()". The first one does the job :). "Ping" is kind of |
| 16 |
a start up function: it pings the service - and if the service is not |
| 17 |
started already, dbus launches it. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
I also extended the catapult-start.sh: I renamed it to "catapult.sh" and |
| 20 |
make it accept four commands: |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
- - start: Starts the service - the script does not return # old |
| 23 |
catapult-start.sh bevavior |
| 24 |
- - stop: Stops the service |
| 25 |
- - ping: Pings the service --> startup WITH returning (see note above) |
| 26 |
- - status: Checks whether the service has been started. As the catapult |
| 27 |
services a run on the session bus, it can only give information about |
| 28 |
the current user. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
So a restart of e.g. the catapult portage service would look like: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
if catapult status portage; then |
| 33 |
catapult stop portage |
| 34 |
catapult ping portage |
| 35 |
fi |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
A similar algorithm is used by the catapult-portage ebuild in the |
| 38 |
pkg_postinst function to restart the root's service (or whoever ran the |
| 39 |
emerge command). |
