Runit init scripts for void

This repository contains the runit init scripts for the Void Linux distribution.

This is loosely based on https://github.com/chneukirchen/ignite but with the difference that I'm trying to avoid the bash dependency.

Dependencies

  • A POSIX shell
  • A POSIX awk
  • procps-ng (needs pkill -s0,1)
  • runit

How to use it

runit is used by default in the Void distribution.

To see enabled services for "current" runlevel:

$ ls -l /var/service

To see available runlevels (default and single, which just runs sulogin):

$ ls -l /etc/runit/runsvdir

To enable and start a service into the "current" runlevel:

# ln -s /etc/sv/<service> /var/service

To disable and remove a service:

# rm -f /var/service/<service>

To view status of all services for "current" runlevel:

# sv status /var/service/*
