Node Service Commands
For both MacOS and Linux, commands for operating your node have been stubbed into qclient for ease of use.
For MacOS, the service uses the native Launchd service.
For Linux, Systemd is used.
This will detect which operating system and use the relevant commands.
Commands
To start the node:
Start
qclient node service start
Status
To get the current status of the node:
qclient node service status
Stop
To stop the node gracefully,
qclient node service stop
Restart
To restart the node:
qclient node service restart
Reload
If there are any config changes, you must reload the service (should be rare that this happens).
qclient node service reload
Enable
To enable to service to start the node on server restarts:
qclient node service enable
Disable
To disable node startup on restarts:
qclient node service disable
Update
When new updates of qclient come out, there may be changes to the service file for optimization, but by default, this will not automatically replace your existing service file (the changes will not take effect).
To update the service file to the latest version:
qclient node service update
Uninstall
If you wish to remove the standard service install:
qclient node service uninstall
