The s6-dumpenv program

s6-dumpenv stores its environment variables into a directory.

Interface

     s6-dumpenv [ -m mode ] dir

• s6-dumpenv creates the directory dir if it does not exist yet.
• For every environment variable x with value y that it has, it creates a file dir/x containing y.
• It then exits 0.

Options

• -m mode : create dir with mode mode if it doesn't exist yet. Default is 0755.

Notes

• A program prog can be run with the environment in dir by using s6-envdir -fn -- dir prog.
