LR_CHECK_SUPERSERVICE.IN(1)

NAME
lr_check_superservice - map Lire service to Lire superservice

SYNOPSIS
lr_check_superservice service lr_check_superservice -l

DESCRIPTION
lr_check_superservice takes a Lire service as argument, and returns the superservice this service belongs to. In case the service is unknown, a userfriendly errormessage is given. The given service could be in its non-canonical name.

lr_check_superservice calls Lire::Config::check_superservice to perform the real work: this script is supplied only to enable access to this perl routine from shell scripts.

lr_check_superservice exits 0, even if service is unknown.

When called with the -l option, this script prints all supported superservices.

Refer to the Lire::Config(3pm) manpage for details.

EXAMPLE
Call this script in shell scripts as

 LR_SERVICE="$1"
 LR_SUPERSERVICE=`lr_check_superservice "$LR_SERVICE"`
 if test -z "$LR_SUPERSERVICE"
 then
    echo >&2 "$tag err lr_check_superservice failed"
    exit 1
 fi
 # now go using $LR_SUPERSERVICE
.
