Subject: wesnoth-server: Please add support for monitoring through UNIX socket

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: wesnoth-server
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'd like to monitor the server through UNIX socket, according to a
mail from David White:

> First, set up a fifo to communicate with the server with. This means
> a named pipe which you have write access to, and the server has read
> access to when it starts. Invoke the server with the option --fifo
> <___location-of-fifo>. If you don't specify a fifo, the server attempts

> Then, you can send the server the command 'status' by using echo
> "status" > /path/to/fifo

> The server will respond by outputting its current status on its

But this socket does not exist under the Debian package.

Could you please add support for this?

Best regards,

Thank you.

I'm sorry I don't have time to do it myself at this time... :)

Here's more information from David:

Thanks.
