`queue-pr -q' should run through a
pipe (2V) via the mail
aliases(5) mechanism to automatically place incoming bug reports in a queue
directory for
GNATS. Run
`queue-pr -r' via
cron(8) to periodically empty the
GNATS queue, filing new bug reports in the database.
Always use one of
-q | --queue or
-r | --run (but not both), in each call to
queue-pr. These are mutually exclusive functions in order to avoid collisions.
OPTIONS
-q, --queue
Accept standard input as an incoming mail message, placing this message in
an incrementally numbered file in the database subdirectory gnats-queue
for future handling.
-r, --run
Redirect files from the database subdirectory gnats-queue to
file-pr (8)which files and creates index entries for each.
-f filename or --file=filename
Treat
filename as input rather than reading from standard input (used with the
--queue option).
-m kbytes, --max-size=kbytes
Do not process messages larger than kbytes kilobytes in size.
Files larger than the limit are left for human intervention.
-d database or --database=databasename
Used with the
--queue or
--run options, use the database named
database rather than the database default or the database specified by the
GNATSDBenvironment variable.
-h, --help
Displays a short usage message.
-V, --version
Displays the queue-pr version number.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The GNATSDB environment variable is used to determine which database to
use. For a local database, it contains the name of the database to access.
If GNATSDB is not set, the database named default is used.
