NAME
tracker-status - Report the state of all data miners
SYNOPSIS
tracker-status [OPTION...]
DESCRIPTION
tracker-status shows the status of all miners and the store which
miners push information into. To do this, you can run tracker-status
with no command line arguments. For tracker-store, the status is always
Idle unless it is replaying a journal (regardless of load from
applications or miners). For a list of common statuses, see
--list-common-statuses.
The miners can be paused or resumed using this command and you can list
miners running and available.
To start or stop miners, you need to use tracker-control. The store is
started automatically by the D-Bus calls from the miners.
OPTIONS
-?, --help
Show summary of options.
-f, --follow
Follow status changes as they happen. This requires Ctrl+C to
stop and return to the command line. Each new status is put on a
new line. To get more information, you can use --detailed with
this.
-d, --detailed
For the most part, this purely provides a timestamp with each
status update to follow WHEN changes happened.
-s, --list-common-statuses
This will list statuses most commonly produced by miners and the
store. These statuses are not translated when sent over D-Bus
and should be translated by each application. These are not
considered static and are subject to change at any point.
Additionally, these statuses are not the only ones which may be
reported by a miner. There may be other states pertaining to the
specific roles of the miner in question.
-l, --list-miners-running
This will list all miners which have responded to a D-Bus call.
Sometimes it is helpfult to use this command with --list-miners-
available.
-a, --list-miners-available
This will list all miners which are available even if they are
not running at the moment.
-i, --pause-details
For listing all miners which are paused and the reasons for
being paused, you can use this. It will also display the
application that requested the pause too.
-m, --miner=MINER
This argument is used with --pause and --resume to say which
miner you want to pause or resume. You can use the full D-Bus
name, e.g. org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Files OR you can use
the suffix, e.g. Files
-p, --pause=REASON
The REASON here is useful to know WHY the miner should be
paused. A miner can be paused many times by multiple
applications. Only when all pauses have been resumed will it
continue. If successful, a cookie will be given to uniquely
identify the request. This cookie is used to resume the pause at
a later stage.
-r, --resume=COOKIE
The COOKIE is given by a successful --pause command. It is a
number which identifies each pause request. When all pauses have
been resumed, the miner will resume working.
-V, --version
Print version.
