Subject: dh-make: Enhancements to provided init.d template and a new LSB-compliant init.d script

Date: Sat, 25 Aug 2007 19:35:33 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: dh-make
Version: 0.43
Priority: wishlist
Tags: patch

I've made some changes to the default template provided for init.d scripts:

 - make time to wait for server to die configurable (DODTIME)
 - check if the server really started after 'start'
 - add a new 'status' check to the init.d script
 - added a new 'force-stop' action to the init.d script

I've also written a new init.d script which I believe could be included
as part of the templates that dh-make provides. This new init.d script
provides the following features:

  - LSB-compliant: includes an LSB header and uses lsb-style messages
    (notice that LSB is a release goal for us)
  - Adds the possibility to run the server as a non-root user (through
    DAEMONUSER)
  - Start / Stop / Reload code are separate functions
  - Add proper checks to all actions to see if the daemon actually
    started or stopped.
  - Add a new 'status' check
  - PIDFILE location is now configurable
  - Added a new force-stop
  - Aded a sample 'reload' action for when the server does not support it,
    enhance the (commented) 'reload' action with some additional checks

Hope you find these enhancements useful and include them in the dh-make
package.

Thanks

Javier
