upstart-event-bridge (8)

NAME

upstart-event-bridge - Bridge between system Upstart and session Upstart

SYNOPSIS

upstart-event-bridge [OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

upstart-event-bridge receives information about Upstart system events(8) have completed and creates Upstart session events for them.
It emits events which match the pattern ":sys:*". Forwarding any event that's triggered on the system upstart as well as a virtual "restarted" event when upstart itself is restarted (during upgrades).
See upstart-events(7) and for further details.
This bridge should be run as a user, after the session bus has been setup and only once per session init.

OPTIONS

--daemon

Detach and run in the background.

--debug

Enable debugging output.

--help

Show brief usage summary.

--verbose

Enable verbose output.

NOTES

Since events emitted by this bridge at the session level are copies of the original system events, the blocking semantics of the original system events are not retained.

EXAMPLES

Some examples of Upstart events generated by this bridge:

:sys:restarted

Event emitted when the system Upstart is restarted.

:sys:*

Any event emitted on the system Upstart.
