NAME

       tntnet - web application server for c++

SYNOPSIS

       tntnet [-c file] [--logall]

       tntnet -C [-q query-string] [componentId ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the tntnet command.

       tntnet is a web server that can generate dynamic content via precompiled C++ modules.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.

       -c file
	      Use file as the configuration file.  If the -c is omitted, the first nonoption argument is used as the config file.

       --logall
	      Initialize logging earlier. Normally logging is initialized after starting the listeners and changing user so that logfiles are cre-
	      ated with the right owner.  For debugging reasons this option forces to do that earlier.

       -C     Call components and print the result to stdout instead of starting tntnet as a webserver

       -q query-string
	      In -C mode pass this query string to the component. The option may be repeated multiple times to pass name-value-pairs easily.

EXAMPLE

       tntnet -C -q arg1=35 -q arg2=7 -q op=/ calc@calc
       calls the component calc@calc with query parameters and prints the result to stdout.

FILES

       /etc/tntnet/tntnet.conf The default configuration file.

ENVIRONMENT

       TNTNET_CONF
	      This is checked for the configuration file name if it is not specified on the command line.

       tntnet was written by Tommi Makitalo <tommi@tntnet.org>.

       This manual page was written by Kari Pahula <kaol@debian.org>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others).
