DESCRIPTION

       The cyphesis tools manage the data and configuration files used by cyphesis.

       The cyaddrules tool uploads Atlas XML rules files into the  a  running  server.  If  rules
       already  exist in the server, then the default attributes are updated, and if the rule has
       a script associated with it, then the script is reloaded from file. cyaddrules can  either
       upload the file given on the command line, or if none is specified it will upload the rule
       file for the ruleset specified in the server config, and any rule  files  it  depends  on.
       cyaddrules  is  typically  used  to  add  additional rules during rule development without
       having to restart the server. Rules can be loaded directly into  a  running  server  using
       cyaddrules.

       The  cyconfig  program  provides  an  easy scriptable way to make permanent changes to the
       server config from  the  command  line.   It  works  by  writing  new  config  options  to
       .cyphesis.vconf  in  the users home directory, which is read by the server at startup, and
       overrides the contents of the main config file. For a description of the  various  options
       that the server takes, please see cyphesis(1).

       The  cyconvertrules  program  converts Atlas XML rules files from an older historic format
       into the format used by cyphesis since version 0.3.1.

       The cydumprules program dumps rules from the database table used by the server into a  set
       of  Atlas  XML  rules files. Note that this does not produce a set of files containing the
       same rules as those that were loaded in using cyloadrules because some of the rules in the
       rulesets  that  were  not  top  level  may  have  been overloaded, and do not exist in the
       database table. Typically this command will be used to get an  updated  copy  of  the  top
       level ruleset from the server database, and the rest of the files will be ignored.

       The  cyloadrules  tool  loads  Atlas  XML  rules files into the database table used by the
       server. The rules table is read by the server at startup, so a server restart is typically
       required  after  loading  rules. cyloadrules can either load the file given on the command
       line, or if none is specified it will load the rule file for the ruleset specified in  the
       server  config,  and  any  rule  files it depends on.  Rules can be loaded directly into a
       running server using cyaddrules.

       The cypasswd tool is used to administrate the accounts table in the server database.

       The cyexport tool exports entities (and optionally rules) from a  running  server  into  a
       file. The file generated can be imported into a server through the tool cyimport.

       The  cyimport tool imports entities and rules from a file, previously exported through the
       cyexport tool, into a running server.

       The cypython tool allows you to execute Python code in a running server. This command must
       be  run  on  the same machine as the server (it uses domain sockets for communication with
       the server). When run the user is presented with an interactive console into which  Python
       code can be entered.  Commands are sent to the server by pressing enter.

       The  cydb  tool  is  used to perform maintanence on the server database. Use only when the
       server is offline.  The first argument specified which  dataset  to  work  with,  and  the
       second  argument  specifies  the  action  for  that  data set.  The following datasets are
       supported:

       rules  Purge and list rules.

       user   Purge, list, delete or modify user entries.

       user   Purge the world of all entities.

OPTIONS

       The cypasswd can either add a new account, set the password of  an  existing  account,  or
       remove  an  account  from  the database. When no arguments are given, it prompts for a new
       admin password for cyphesis.  When run with the -a  option,  the  command  prompts  for  a
       password  to  be  entered  and an account with the username given by account, and with the
       password supplied at the prompt is created. When run  with  the  -s  option,  the  command
       prompts  for  a  password, and the existing account with username given by account has its
       password changed to the new one entered. When run with the -d  option,  the  account  with
       username given by account is removed from the database.

       Whenever  the  cypasswd  prompts  for  a password, a second prompt is displayed asking for
       confirmation of the password. If the two password entered do not match, the  operation  is
       aborted, and no changes are made to the database.

       The  cyexport  by  default  only  exports  entities, but can also export rules through the
       option --export:rules=1.  By default no transient  entities  are  exported.  This  can  be
       changed by the option --export:transients=1
