Revision as of 13:09, 24 November 2012

fcraftd is an unofficial script that attempts to work around monos incapabilities. It is a standard bash script that works on most if not all linux boxes. Despite what the name may suggest, fcraftd was not written to make fCraft into a system daemon, though possible, might not be a good idea.

Features

  • fCraft continues running even after logout
  • Ability to connect back to console at any time, even with multiple administrators at once
  • Reliable restarting under mono
  • Supports external HeartbeatSaver
  • No further knowledge of linux neccesary
  • An optional simple configuration file
  • Ability to stop or restart without console interaction
  • Ability to update/install fCraft

Known bugs

  • fCraft's autoupdater doesn't work or crashes fCraft, only manual updating works.
  • fcraftd was written for (but does not depend on) an initscripts/SysV linux installation, which has become deprecated
  • fcraftd depends on the screen program, which is likely to be replaced by tmux in the future
  • fcraftd probably does not conform strict posix
