NAME

cascabel-query − list tickets from a Cascabel queue matching an expression

SYNOPSIS

cascabel-query queue [expression]

expression = [not] ( status status | subject subject )

DESCRIPTION

The cascabel-query program queries the Cascabel database based on the simple expression on the command line.

The queue argument specifies which queue to list. With no other arguments, cascabel-query lists all the tickets in the queue.

The output format includes a header line and each ticket is listed by its id number, a short description of its age, how long ago it was updated, its status, and its subject.

Note: cascabel-query is intended to be a demonstraton, example, and testing program for Cascabel. Any useful queue should have specific front-end programs for this task.

OPTIONS

not

The not keyword negates the meaning of the expression, i.e. cascabel-query lists the tickets which do not match the expression.

status

The cascabel-query program searches the status field of the queue table for the next argument.

subject

The program searches the subject field of the queue table for the next argument, which can be a regular expression.
