Lunchy 0.9.0, the friendly launchctl wrapper<br />

Usage: lunchy [start|stop|restart|ls|list|status|install|uninstall|rm|show|edit] [options]

    -x, --exact                      Force exact (case insensitive) match when specifying a [pattern]

    -F, --force                      Force start (disabled) agents

    -v, --verbose                    Show command executions

    -w, --write                      Persist command

    -l, --long                       Display absolute paths when listing agents

    -s, --symlink                    Use a symlink for installation



Supported commands:



 ls [-l] [pattern]       Show the list of installed agents, with optional [pattern] filter

 list [-l] [pattern]     Alias for 'ls'

 start [-wF] [pattern]   Start the first agent matching [pattern]

 stop [-w] [pattern]     Stop the first agent matching [pattern]

 restart [pattern]       Stop and start the first agent matching [pattern]

 status [pattern]        Show the PID and label for all agents, with optional [pattern] filter

 install [-s] [file]     Install [file] to ~/Library/LaunchAgents or /Library/LaunchAgents (whichever it finds first)

 uninstall [name]        Uninstall [name] from ~/Library/LaunchAgents or /Library/LaunchAgents (whichever it finds first)

 show [pattern]          Show the contents of the launchctl daemon file

 edit [pattern]          Open the launchctl daemon file in the default editor (EDITOR environment variable)



-w will persist the start/stop command so the agent will load on startup or never load, respectively.

-l will display absolute paths of the launchctl daemon files when showing list of installed agents.

-x will force exact matching of the [pattern] for any command that uses a pattern



Example:

 lunchy ls

 lunchy ls -l nginx

 lunchy start -w redis

 lunchy stop mongo

 lunchy status mysql

 lunchy install /usr/local/Cellar/redis/2.2.2/io.redis.redis-server.plist

 lunchy show redis

 lunchy edit mongo

 lunchy uninstall -x elasticsearch # will not try to uninstall elasticsearch14



Note: if you run lunchy as root, you can manage daemons in /Library/LaunchDaemons also.
