NAME

       bpluginfo - Bareos Plugin information utility

SYNOPSIS

       bplufinfo [options] plugin_filename.so

DESCRIPTION

       The main purpose of bpluginfo is to display different information about Bareos plugin. You
       can use it to check a plugin name, author, license and short description. You can  use  -f
       option  to display API implemented by the plugin. Some plugins may require additional '-a'
       option for validating a Bareos Daemons API. In most cases it is not required.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.

       -h     Show usage of the program.

       -v     Verbose information printing all available data from the plugin,  including  plugin
              header and implemented API.

       -i     Display  short  information  from  plugin  header  only.  This is a default option.
              Option incompatible with -f option.

       -f     Display information about implemented API functions.

       -a <api>
              You can supply the plugin initialization function  with  a  particular  Bareos  API
              number.  Without  this option a default API number is '1'. Option require a numeric
              argument.

RETURN CODE

       bpluginfo returns 0 on success, and non-zero on error.

       You can check return code to find what was a cause of the error.
               * 0 - success
               * 1 - cannot load a plugin
               * 2 - cannot find a loadPlugin function
               * 3 - cannot find an unloadPlugin function
               * 10 - not enough memory
