On OS X you can use Console.app to see\nthese logs.\n\nThe control task coordinates shared resources such as mutexes and queues.\nAlongside the control task is a Rinda:RingServer which other mitten services\nto find each other.\n\nWhen using \u003ccode\u003emitten startup\u003c/code\u003e locally you must give it a type.  When\nrun in the cloud +mitten+ automatically determines this from the VM name.\n\nYou can then start the console:\n\n  $ mitten console --localhost\n\nThis will show you all the running processes and information about their\nstate.  (If you start the console first it will wait for a control task.)\n\nYou will see output similar to this:\n\n  control pid 62724 at kault, 29572 RSS, 0 children\n  Console pid 63498 at kault, 40048 RSS (me)\n  RingServer 3✓ 3⤓ 0☠ pid 62725 at kault, 29764 RSS\n\nTo start a +mitten+ task give the task name as the type for +startup+ along\nwith the number of workers to start:\n\n  $ mitten startup --type YourTask --localhost --workers 1\n\nThis will start one process of YourTask.  +mitten+ will manage multiple\nworkers doing the same task if you tell it to launch more.\n\nTo help debug your task, run it with the \u003ccode\u003e--once\u003c/code\u003e option:\n\n  $ mitten startup --type YourTask --localhost --workers 1 --once\n\nOrdinarily +mitten+ will restart your task upon exceptions, but with\n\u003ccode\u003e--once\u003c/code\u003e it will exit instead.\n\nThe +mitten+ executable will load the \u003ccode\u003e~/.power_mitten\u003c/code\u003e\nconfiguration file.\n\nIf the file exists it must contain OpenStack and swift credential information\neven when running locally.  Use this dummy configuration:\n\n  openstack_auth_url: https://auth.example/v2.0/tokens\n  openstack_tenant:   TENANT\n  openstack_username: USERNAME\n  openstack_api_key:  PASSWORD\n  swift_uri:      https://storage.example/auth/\n  swift_username: TENANT:USERNAME\n  swift_key:      PASSWORD\n\n== Install\n\n  sudo gem install power_mitten\n\n== Developers\n\nAfter checking out the source, run:\n\n  $ rake newb\n\nThis task will install any missing dependencies, run the tests and generate\nthe RDoc.\n\n== License\n\nCopyright (c) AT\u0026T\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdrbrain%2Fpower_mitten","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdrbrain%2Fpower_mitten","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdrbrain%2Fpower_mitten/lists"}
