Server Lifecycle

preServerStart

Announced before a server starts. This fires after server.json has been located but before any configuration is resolved. Use this to override any user inputs, influence how the server's details are resolved, or to modify things like hostname before ports are bound.

interceptData

  • defaultName - The name of the server

  • defaultwebroot - The web root of the server

  • defaultServerConfigFile - The location of the server.json (May not exist yet)

  • serverJSON - The parsed contents of the JSON file

  • serverInfo - The serverInfo Struct (see below)

  • serverIsNew - A boolean whether this server has been started before.

• serverProps - A struct with the parameters passed to the start command from the CLI. Omitted params will not be present.

  • See the help for the server start command to see the current list of parameters.

onServerInstall

Announced when a server is starting and the cfengine is being installed. This gives you a chance to influence how the server is installed or to modify default settings before the server process actually starts. This is not announced for servers using a WARPath setting. It is announced every time a server is started, but you can use the installDetails.initialInstall flag to determine if this is the first time the engine is being installed for one-time tasks.

interceptData

• serverInfo - Same as onServerStart above

• installDetails A struct with the following keys:

  • internal - True if using the embedded jars from the CLI

  • enginename - The name of the cfengine that was installed

  • version - The version of the cfengine that was installed

  • installDir - The folder where the server is installed to

  • initialInstall - True if this is the first time the engine was installed

onServerStop

Announced before a server stop.

interceptData

• serverInfo - Same as onServerStart above

preServerForget

Always fires before attempting to forget a server whether or not the forgetting is actually successful. Has access to all files and settings for the server.

interceptData

• serverInfo - Same as onServerStart above

postServerForget

Fires after a successful server forget. If the forget fails, this will not fire.

interceptData

• serverInfo - Same as onServerStart above
