4.5 Service Examples

FIXME: This needs a lot of work.

You can create a service and then register it this way: 

(define apache (make <service>
                     #:provides '(apache)
                     #:start (...)
                     #:stop (...)))
(register-services apache)

However, as you usually won’t need a variable for the service, you can pass it directly to register-services. Here is an example that also specifies some more initial values for the slots: 

(register-services
  (make <service>
        #:provides '(apache-2.0 apache httpd)
        #:requires '()
        #:start (...)
        #:stop (...)
        #:actions (make-actions
                   (reload-modules (...))
                   (restart (...)))))
