DH_INSTALLINIT(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLINIT(1)
NAME
dh_installinit - install service init files into package build directories
SYNOPSIS
dh_installinit [debhelper options] [--name=name] [-n] [-R] [-r] [-d] [-- params]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installinit is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing init scripts with
associated defaults files, as well as upstart job files, and systemd service files into
package build directories.
It also automatically generates the postinst and postrm and prerm commands needed to set
up the symlinks in /etc/rc*.d/ to start and stop the init scripts.
FILES
debian/package.init
If this exists, it is installed into etc/init.d/package in the package build
directory.
debian/package.default
If this exists, it is installed into etc/default/package in the package build
directory.
debian/package.upstart
If this exists, it is installed into etc/init/package.conf in the package build
directory.
debian/package.service
If this exists, it is installed into lib/systemd/system/package.service in the package
build directory.
debian/package.tmpfile
If this exists, it is installed into usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/package.conf in the package
build directory. (The tmpfiles.d mechanism is currently only used by systemd.)
OPTIONS
-n, --noscripts
Do not modify postinst/postrm/prerm scripts.
-o, --onlyscripts
Only modify postinst/postrm/prerm scripts, do not actually install any init script,
default files, upstart job or systemd service file. May be useful if the file is
shipped and/or installed by upstream in a way that doesn't make it easy to let
dh_installinit find it.
-R, --restart-after-upgrade
Do not stop the init script until after the package upgrade has been completed. This
is different than the default behavior, which stops the script in the prerm, and
starts it again in the postinst.
This can be useful for daemons that should not have a possibly long downtime during
upgrade. But you should make sure that the daemon will not get confused by the package
being upgraded while it's running before using this option.
-r, --no-restart-on-upgrade
Do not stop init script on upgrade.
--no-start
Do not start the init script on install or upgrade, or stop it on removal. Only call
update-rc.d. Useful for rcS scripts.
-d, --remove-d
Remove trailing d from the name of the package, and use the result for the filename
the upstart job file is installed as in etc/init/ , and for the filename the init
script is installed as in etc/init.d and the default file is installed as in
etc/default/ . This may be useful for daemons with names ending in d. (Note: this
takes precedence over the --init-script parameter described below.)
-uparams --update-rcd-params=params
-- params
Pass params to update-rc.d(8). If not specified, defaults will be passed to
update-rc.d(8).
--name=name
Install the init script (and default file) as well as upstart job file using the
filename name instead of the default filename, which is the package name. When this
parameter is used, dh_installinit looks for and installs files named
debian/package.name.init, debian/package.name.default and debian/package.name.upstart
instead of the usual debian/package.init, debian/package.default and
debian/package.upstart.
--init-script=scriptname
Use scriptname as the filename the init script is installed as in etc/init.d/ (and
also use it as the filename for the defaults file, if it is installed). If you use
this parameter, dh_installinit will look to see if a file in the debian/ directory
exists that looks like package.scriptname and if so will install it as the init script
in preference to the files it normally installs.
This parameter is deprecated, use the --name parameter instead. This parameter is
incompatible with the use of upstart jobs.
--error-handler=function
Call the named shell function if running the init script fails. The function should be
provided in the prerm and postinst scripts, before the #DEBHELPER# token.
NOTES
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations
of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added
to maintainer scripts.
