LR_CHECK_SERVICE.IN(1) LogReport's Lire Documentation LR_CHECK_SERVICE.IN(1)

NAME

lr_check_service - check existence of Lire service

SYNOPSIS

lr_check_service service
lr_check_service -l

DESCRIPTION

lr_check_service checks if service service is supported in Lire, i.e. if there is a DLF converter registered under that name.
When called with the -l (for `list') option, lr_check_service lists all registered DLF converters.
Like all Lire scripts, you might want to call this script via lr_run(1), to deal sanely with this scripts' debug- and logging output.
You might prefer the lr_log2report(1) --help options to list available services: this command creates a more human-friendly format of the list.

EXAMPLE

Call this script in shell scripts as 
 LR_SERVICE="$1"
 LR_SERVICE=`lr_check_service "$LR_SERVICE" || true`
 if test -z "$LR_SERVICE"
 then
    echo >&2 "$tag err lr_check_service failed"
    exit 1
 fi
 # now go using $LR_SERVICE
.
