Daemon

+ +

Command Line Arguments

+ +The polypaudio daemon accepts several command line arguments: + +

-L MODULE: Load the specified module. This option may be specified more than once.

-F FILE: Run the specified script. This option may be specified more than once.

-C: Load the module module-cli after startup.

-D: Daemonize after successfully executing all scripts and loading all modules.

-f: Unless this option is given the daemon will terminate if any of the specified modules failed to load or the script didn't execute successfully.

-v: Increase the verbosity of the daemon.

-h: Show a quick help.

+ +

Example

+ +

It is a good idea to run the daemon like this:

+ +

polypaudio -D -F /etc/polypaudio/polypaudio.pa

+ +

/etc/polypaudio/polypaudio.pa should be a script written in the CLI language described in cli.html + +

Signals

+ +

The following signals are trapped specially:

+ +

SIGINT

+ +

The daemon is shut down cleanly.

+ +

SIGUSR1

+ +

The daemon tries to load the module module-cli, effectively providing a command line interface on the calling TTY.

+ +

SIGUSR2

+ +

The daemon tries to load the module module-cli-protocol-unix, effectively providing a command line interface on a special UNIX domain socket.

+ +
