RUN-PARTS(8) System Manager's Manual RUN-PARTS(8) run-parts - run-parts [--test] [--verbose] [--debug] [--report] [--lsbsysinit] [--regex=RE] [--umask=umask] [--arg=argument] [--after=PROG] [--before=PROG] [--exit-on-error] [--help] [--version] [--list] [--reverse] [--] DIRECTORY [DIRECTORY ...] run-parts -V run-parts directory --lsbsysinit --regex ASCII ASCII ASCII ASCII If the --lsbsysinit option is given, then the names must not end in .dpkg-old or .dpkg-dist or .dpkg-new or .dpkg-tmp, and must belong to one or more of the following namespaces: the LANANA-assigned namespace (^[a-z0-9]+$); the LSB hierarchical and reserved namespaces (^_?([a-z0-9_.]+-)+[a-z0-9]+$); and the Debian cron script namespace (^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$). --regex Files are run sequentially in the lexical sort order (according to the C/POSIX locale character collation rules) of their names unless the --reverse option is given, in which case they are run in the opposite order. If more than more DIRECTORY is specified, then files with the same name in earlier directories will take precedence over files in directories specified in later arguments. This allows run-parts to receive directories with scripts in both /usr and /etc but let files in /etc override scripts in /usr if they are named the same. The directory under /etc would need to be specified before the path under /usr for this to happen. --test --list print the names of the all matching files (not limited to executables), but don't actually run them. This option cannot be used with --test. -v, --verbose --report --verbose -d, --debug print to stderr which scripts get selected for running and which don't. --reverse --exit-on-error 0 --stdin multiplex stdin to scripts being run, using temporary file --lsbsysinit LSB --new-session run-parts kill kill --regex=RE RE -u, --umask=umask umask umask umask 8 umask 022 -a, --arg=argument argument --arg -A, --after=program run program after each script runs. The program will be called with three arguments: script name, exit status, and total amount written to the output and error streams. The last argument will always be 0 unless the --report option is also specified. If this option is used multiple times, only the last one will take effect. If the called program exits with an error code, it won't be called again. -B, --before=program run program before running each script. The program will be called with one argument: the script name. If this option is used multiple times, only the last one will take effect. If the called program exits with an error code, it won't be called again. -- -- -h, --help -V, --version /etc `p' `d' run-parts --list --regex '^p.*d$' /etc Copyright (C) 1994 Ian Jackson.
