# svc
## Goals
- Standardize service deployments to have _one_ syntax and _one_ function for the following:
1. Deployment
2. Checking the status of a deployed service
3. Killing off an old instance of the service
- Create a command line tool that deploys a service to a given provider
given configuration in a simple yaml manifest (see example [here](https://github.com/Xe/tools/tree/master/svc/sample))
- Persist a mapping of service names -> identifier for keeping track of past deployments
## Subcommands
| cmd | what it does |
|:--- |:------------ |
| `spawn` | Launches a new instance of the given service name on the given backend |
| `ps` | Inquires the status of all known deployed services and displays them in a clever little grid |
| `create` | Creates a directory hierarchy at $SVCROOT for a new service by name |
| `remove` | Stops a service and undeploys it from a given backend |
| `cycle` | Pulls the latest image and restarts the service with the new image |
| `inspect` | Inspects a single service, outputting its state in json |
### `spawn`
Launches a new instance of the given service name on the given backend
Usage: `svc spawn [options] <servicename> <backend>`
Options:
| option | type | effect |
|:------ |:---- |:------ |
| `-kahled` | bool | Creates another instance of this service if one exists on any backend, fails if service is exclusive and already spawned |
### `ps`
Inquires the status of all known deployed services and displays them in a clever little grid
Usage `svc ps [options] [servicename]`
Options:
| option | type | effect |
|:------ |:---- |:------ |
| `-backend` | string | If set, only show results for services running on the given backend |
| `-match` | string | If set, regex-match on service details |
| `-format` | string | Pretty-print container status using a Go template |
### `create`
Creates a directory hierarchy at $SVCROOT for a new service by name
Usage: `svc create <servicename>`
### `remove`
Stops a service and removes it from a given backend
Usage: `svc remove <servicename>`
### `cycle`
Pulls the latest image and restarts the service with the new image
This command ***NEVER*** stops the old container until the new container is running and passes
healthchecks.
Usage: `svc cycle <servicename>`
### `inspect`
Inspects a single service from a single backend, outputting its state in json
By default this will output a list of the inspect state of all matching instances of a service
running on a particular backend.
Usage: `svc inspect <servicename> <backend>`
