NAME
bk Howto-bkd − howto: configuring the BitKeeper
daemon
DESCRIPTION
Here are examples how to configure the bk daemon for
both read-only and read-write modes. We show how to export
all repositories on a system in both read-write and
read-only mode and we show how to export only a specific
repository in read-write and read-only mode.
# Configure
BitKeeper daemon for read-only
# access for all repositories
bk bkd -d -xpush
# Configure
BitKeeper daemon for read-write
# access for all repositories
bk bkd -d
# Access a
specific repository when multiple
# ones are being exported
bk clone bk://host.domain/some/dir/master ˜/my_tree
# Configure a
specific BitKeeper repository
# for read-write access
cd /master/repository
bk bkd -d -p6666 -xcd
# Configure a
specific BitKeeper repository
# for read-only access
cd /master/repository
bk bkd -d -p4444 -xcd -xpush
# Access a
repository bound to a specific port
bk clone bk://host.domain:6666 ˜/my_tree
With the BK/Web feature, you can use a web browser to access the bkd web interface. For example, to access the bkd above listening on port 6666, you can use the URL :
http://host.domain:6666/
