NAME

       upstart-event-bridge - Bridge between system Upstart and session Upstart

SYNOPSIS

       upstart-event-bridge [OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

       upstart-event-bridge  receives  information  about Upstart system events(8) have completed
       and creates Upstart session events for them.

       It emits events which match the pattern ":sys:*". Forwarding any event that's triggered on
       the system upstart as well as a virtual "restarted" event when upstart itself is restarted
       (during upgrades).

       See upstart-events(7) and for further details.

       This bridge should be run as a user, after the session bus has been setup  and  only  once
       per session init.

OPTIONS

       --daemon
              Detach and run in the background.

       --debug
              Enable debugging output.

       --help Show brief usage summary.

       --verbose
              Enable verbose output.

NOTES

       Since events emitted by this bridge at the session level are copies of the original system
       events, the blocking semantics of the original system events are not retained.

EXAMPLES

       Some examples of Upstart events generated by this bridge:

       :sys:restarted
              Event emitted when the system Upstart is restarted.

       :sys:* Any event emitted on the system Upstart.
