Title: Available Lamson Commands
Content-Type: text/html

The following is also available by running lamson help and you can get the
help for each individual command with lamson help -for COMMAND replacing
COMMAND with one of these listed below.

The format for the printed options show default options as an actual setting,
and required options as a CAPITALIZED setting you must give.  For example, in the
send command:

lamson send -port 8825 -host 127.0.0.1 -debug 1 -sender EMAIL -to EMAIL -subject STR -body STR -attach False

The options -port, -host, -debug, and -file have default settings, but -sender,
-to, -subject and -body require a STRing or EMAIL.  Notice also that -file
defaults to False which you can change by just including -file (that
toggles it true).

lamson blast

Given a maildir, this command will go through each email
and blast it at your server.  It does nothing to the message, so
it will be real messages hitting your server, not cleansed ones.

lamson cleanse

Uses Lamson mail cleansing and canonicalization system to take an
input maildir (or mbox) and replicate the email over into another
maildir.  It's used mostly for testing and cleaning.

lamson gen

Generates various useful things for you to get you started.

lamson gen -project STR -FORCE False

lamson help

Prints out help for the commands. 

lamson help

You can get help for one command with:

lamson help -for STR

lamson log

Runs a logging only server on the given hosts and port.  It logs
each message it receives and also stores it to the run/queue 
so that you can make sure it was received in testing.

lamson log -port 8825 -host 127.0.0.1 \
        -pid ./run/log.pid -chroot False  \
        -chdir "." -umask False -uid False -gid False \
        -FORCE False

If you specify a uid/gid then this means you want to first change to
root, set everything up, and then drop to that UID/GID combination.
This is typically so you can bind to port 25 and then become "safe"
to continue operating as a non-root user.

If you give one or the other, this it will just change to that
uid or gid without doing the priv drop operation.

lamson queue

Let's you do most of the operations available to a queue.

lamson queue (-pop | -get | -remove | -count | -clear | -keys) -name run/queue

lamson restart

Simply attempts a stop and then a start command.  All options for both
apply to restart.  See stop and start for options available.

lamson routes

Prints out valuable information about an application's routing configuration
after everything is loaded and ready to go.  Helps debug problems with
messages not getting to your handlers.  Path has the search paths you want
separated by a ':' character, and it's added to the sys.path.

lamson routes -path $PWD -- config.testing -test ""

It defaults to running your config.testing to load the routes. 
If you want it to run the config.boot then give that instead:

lamson routes -- config.boot

You can also test a potential target by doing -test EMAIL.

lamson send

Sends an email to someone as a test message.
See the sendmail command for a sendmail replacement.

lamson send -port 8825 -host 127.0.0.1 -debug 1 \
        -sender EMAIL -to EMAIL -subject STR -body STR -attach False'

lamson sendmail

Used as a testing sendmail replacement for use in programs
like mutt as an MTA.  It reads the email to send on the stdin
and then delivers it based on the port and host settings.

lamson sendmail -port 8825 -host 127.0.0.1 -debug 0 -- [recipients]

lamson start

Runs a lamson server out of the current directory:

lamson start -pid ./run/smtp.pid -FORCE False -chroot False -chdir "." \
        -umask False -uid False -gid False -boot config.boot

lamson status

Prints out status information about lamson useful for finding out if it's
running and where.

lamson status -pid ./run/smtp.pid

lamson stop

Stops a running lamson server.  Give -KILL True to have it
stopped violently.  The PID file is removed after the 
signal is sent.  Give -ALL the name of a run directory and
it will stop all pid files it finds there.

lamson stop -pid ./run/smtp.pid -KILL False -ALL False

lamson version

    Prints the version of Lamson, the reporitory revision, and the
    file it came from.

lamson web

Starts a very simple files only web server for easy testing of applications
that need to make some HTML files as the result of their operation.
If you need more than this then use a real web server.

lamson web -basedir "." -port 8888 -host '127.0.0.1'

This command doesn't exit so you can view the logs it prints out.
