Name
====
**taler-exchange-httpd** - run Taler exchange (with RESTful API)
Synopsis
========
**taler-exchange-httpd** [**-C** | **–connection-close**]
[**-c** *FILENAME* | **–config=**\ \ *FILENAME*]
[**-f** *FILENAME* | **–file-input=**\ \ *FILENAME*]
[**-h** | **–help**]
[**-L** *LOGLEVEL* | **–loglevel=**\ \ *LOGLEVEL*]
[**-t** *SECONDS* | **–timeout=**\ \ *SECONDS*] [**-v** | **–version**]
Description
===========
**taler-exchange-httpd** is a command line tool to run the Taler
exchange (HTTP server). The required configuration, keys and database
must exist before running this command.
Its options are as follows:
**-C** \| **–connection-close**
Force each HTTP connection to be closed after each request (useful in
combination with **-f** to avoid having to wait for nc to time out).
**-c** *FILENAME* \| **–config=**\ \ *FILENAME*
Use the configuration and other resources for the merchant to operate
from FILENAME.
**-h** \| **–help**
Print short help on options.
**-v** \| **–version**
Print version information.
**-f** *FILENAME* \| **–file-input=**\ \ *FILENAME*
This option is only available if the exchange was compiled with the
configure option –enable-developer-mode. It is used for generating
test cases against the exchange using AFL. When this option is
present, the HTTP server will
1. terminate after the first client’s HTTP connection is completed,
and
2. automatically start such a client using a helper process based on
the nc(1) or ncat(1) binary using FILENAME as the standard input
to the helper process.
As a result, the process will effectively run with *FILENAME* as the
input from an HTTP client and then immediately exit. This is useful
to test taler-exchange-httpd against many different possible inputs
in a controlled way.
**-t** *SECONDS* \| **–timeout=**\ \ *SECONDS*
Specifies the number of SECONDS after which the HTTPD should close
(idle) HTTP connections.
**-L** *LOGLEVEL* \| **–loglevel=**\ \ *LOGLEVEL*
Specifies the log level to use. Accepted values are: DEBUG, INFO,
WARNING, ERROR.
SIGNALS
=======
**taler-exchange-httpd** responds to the following signals:
``SIGUSR1``
Sending a SIGUSR1 to the process will cause it to reload denomination
and signing keys.
``SIGTERM``
Sending a SIGTERM to the process will cause it to shutdown cleanly.
``SIGHUP``
Sending a SIGHUP to the process will cause it to re-execute the
taler-exchange-httpd binary in the PATH, passing it the existing
listen socket. Then the old server process will automatically exit
after it is done handling existing client connections; the new server
process will accept and handle new client connections.
