NAME

tarantoolctl - an utility to control tarantool instances

SYNOPSIS

    vim /etc/tarantool/instances.enabled/my_instance.lua
    tarantoolctl start my_instance
    tarantoolctl stop  my_instance
    tarantoolctl logrotate my_instance

DESCRIPTION

The script is read "/etc/sysconfig/tarantool" or "/etc/default/tarantool". The file contains common default instances options:

    $ cat /etc/default/tarantool


    -- Options for Tarantool
    default_cfg = {
        -- will become pid_file .. instance .. '.pid'
        pid_file    =   "/var/run/tarantool",

        -- will become wal_dir/instance/
        wal_dir     =   "/var/lib/tarantool",

        -- snap_dir/instance/
        snap_dir    =   "/var/lib/tarantool",

        -- sophia_dir/instance/
        sophia_dir  =   "/var/lib/tarantool/sophia",

        -- logger/instance .. '.log'
        logger      =   "/var/log/tarantool",

        username    =   "tarantool",
    }

    instance_dir = "/etc/tarantool/instances.enabled"

The file defines "instance_dir" where user can place his applications (instances).

Each instance can be controlled by "tarantoolctl":

Starting instance

    tarantoolctl start instance_name

Stopping instance

    tarantoolctl stop instance_name

Logrotate instance's log

    tarantoolctl logrotate instance_name

Enter instance admin console

    tarantoolctl enter instance_name

status

    tarantoolctl status instance_name

Check if instance is up.

If pid file exists and control socket exists and control socket is alive returns code 0.

Return code != 0 in other cases. Can complain in log (stderr) if pid file exists and socket doesn't, etc.

separate instances control

If You use SysV init, You can use symlink from "tarantoolctl" to "/etc/init.d/instance_name[.lua]". "tarantoolctl" detects if it is started by symlink and uses instance_name as "`basename $0 .lua`".
