The Tirex system has many commands. This an overview.
Command line options
Most Tirex commands have at least the following command line options:
- -h, --help
- Display help message.
- -d, --debug
- Run in debug mode. Commands that normally run in the background will keep running in the foreground. Verbose logging is enabled and the command will log to STDERR (see Logging).
- -c, --config=DIR
- Use the config directory DIR instead of the default /etc/tirex (see Config).
See the man pages for other options.
