list running daemons - is there a rc-status like Gentoo? [SOLVED]

cwall64 · 2009-03-17 15:46:42

Hi,
Sorry for the question, tried searching Wiki and Forums. I am looking for a command like Gentoo has (rc-status) that will list all the running daemons with their status?

I did this a long long time ago for someone on irc. Never touched or looked at it since so it may need some work. http://rafb.net/p/pCKsob75.html

thanks! I really appreciate it, after reading the script I feel a little foolish!

#!/bin/bash
# daemon status

function chk_status()
{
  target=$1
  if [ $target != "functions" ] && [ $target !=  "functions.d" ]
  then
    if [ -f "/var/run/daemons/$target" ]
    then
      stat="[RUNNING]"
    else
      stat="[STOPPED]"
    fi

    printf "%-20s%-10s\n" $target $stat
  fi
}

daemons=$(ls /etc/rc.d/)

if [[ $1 != "" ]]
then
  chk_status $1
else
  for d in $daemons
  do
    chk_status $d
  done
fi

As I said before, I don't use this and it was done very quickly, so there is much room for improvement.

[stijn@hermes ~]$ ls /var/run/daemons/
acpid  alsa  bluetooth  cpufreqd  crond  cups  dbus  hal  mpd  net-profiles  ntpd  syslog-ng

Not sure that's everything you are looking for, but I'm sure it's something...

modified rson's script for readability, basically just added color coding to the status messages.

#!/bin/bash
# daemon status

function chk_status()
{
  target=$1
  if [ $target != "functions" ] && [ $target !=  "functions.d" ]
  then
    if [ -f "/var/run/daemons/$target" ]
    then
      stat="\e[1;32m[RUNNING]"
    else
      stat="\e[1;31m[STOPPED]"
    fi

    echo -e "\e[1;37m$target $stat"
  fi
}

daemons=$(ls /etc/rc.d/)

if [[ $1 != "" ]]
then
  chk_status $1
else
  for d in $daemons
  do
    chk_status $d
  done
fi

nice!

added sorting (the running daemons appear in the tail) and adjusted a little bit the printing format.
to the Ghost1227 version of rson's script

#!/bin/bash
# daemon status

 function chk_status(){
  target=$1
  if [ $target != "functions" ] && [ $target !=  "functions.d" ]
  then
    if [ -f "/var/run/daemons/$target" ]
     then
       stat="\e[1;32m[RUNNING]"
     else
       stat="\e[1;31m[STOPPED]"
     fi

    printf "$stat \t\e[1;34m$target\e[0;0m\n"
  fi
 }

 daemons=$(ls /etc/rc.d/)

 if [[ $1 != "" ]]
  then
   chk_status $1
 else
   for d in $daemons
    do
     chk_status $d
   done | sort
 fi

 exit 0

Why wasting time in I/O on the disk?

#!/bin/bash
# daemon status

function chk_status(){
 target=$1
 if [ $target != "functions" ] && [ $target !=  "functions.d" ]
 then
   if [ -f "/var/run/daemons/$target" ]
    then
      stat="\e[1;32m[RUNNING]"
    else
      stat="\e[1;31m[STOPPED]"
    fi

   echo -e "$stat \t\e[1;34m$target\e[0;0m\n"
 fi
}

daemons=$(ls /etc/rc.d/)

if [[ $1 != "" ]]
 then
  chk_status $1
else
  for d in $daemons
   do
    chk_status $d
  done | sort
fi

exit 0

HTH

syntaxerrormmm,

I tired your version which works, but there's 34 blank lines before the 34 lines of output.

I was just about to ask about this...
I get the blanks too

that is happening because you have "echo -e" instead of "printf"

Just like this:

#!/bin/bash
# daemon status

 function chk_status(){
  target=$1
  if [ $target != "functions" ] && [ $target !=  "functions.d" ]
  then
    if [ -f "/var/run/daemons/$target" ]
     then
       stat="\e[1;32m[RUNNING]"
     else
       stat="\e[1;31m[STOPPED]"
     fi

    printf "$stat \t\e[1;34m$target\e[0;0m\n"
  fi
 }

 daemons=$(ls /etc/rc.d/)

 if [[ $1 != "" ]]
  then
   chk_status $1
 else
   for d in $daemons
    do
     chk_status $d
   done | sort
 fi

 exit 0

Thanks for that. Found this through a search.

This script should be packaged and maintained as part of [core].

My script:

#!/bin/bash
[ $# -ne 1 ] && {
    echo -e "\n`basename $0` service\n";
    exit 1;
}
ls -1 /var/run/daemons/"$1" &> /dev/null && echo -e "$1 RUNNING" || echo -e "$1 STOPPED";

@Leo_Gutierrez - Whats the benefit of your script? You have to specify the service name to check its status.
