relx.git/priv/templates/builtin_hook_wait_for_process, branch master Sane, simple release creation for Erlang. Add support for new relx directive that provides start/stop shell script hooks 2016-11-12T23:59:07+00:00 Luis Rascao luis.rascao@gmail.com 2016-11-05T22:22:19+00:00 3905d39d180efe125b9ef5351d1c3b27a3f825b0 New 'extended_start_script_hooks' directive that allows the developer to define six different hook shell scripts to be invoked at pre/post start/stop/install upgrade phases. Besides these custom defined scripts, other types of builtin scripts are also available, these offer pre-packaged functionality that can be used directly, they are: pid - writes the beam pid to a configurable file location (/var/run/<rel_name>.pid by default). wait_for_vm_start - waits for the vm to start (ie. when it responds to pings) wait_for_process - waits for a configurable name to appear in the erlang process registry The hook scripts are invoked with the 'source' command, therefore they have access to all the variables in the start script. 
New 'extended_start_script_hooks' directive that allows the
developer to define six different hook shell scripts to be invoked
at pre/post start/stop/install upgrade phases.
Besides these custom defined scripts, other types of builtin
scripts are also available, these offer pre-packaged functionality
that can be used directly, they are:
  pid - writes the beam pid to a configurable file location
          (/var/run/<rel_name>.pid by default).
  wait_for_vm_start - waits for the vm to start (ie. when it responds to pings)
  wait_for_process - waits for a configurable name
                                to appear in the erlang process registry
The hook scripts are invoked with the 'source' command, therefore
they have access to all the variables in the start script.
