SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Managing multiple NetAlertX devcontainer services manually inside a container is error-prone and slow. This Skill provides a unified, script-driven way to start, stop, restart, and monitor services from within the devcontainer.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Service orchestration: Start backend, frontend, nginx, php-fpm, and cron with a single command sequence.
  • Status checks: Quickly verify which services are running inside the container.
  • Safe operations: Avoids docker exec, reducing risk of breaking the host environment.

Quick Start

Use the devcontainer skill to start backend with /services/start-backend.sh, then start frontend with /services/start-php-fpm.sh and /services/start-nginx.sh, and finally verify status with pgrep for relevant processes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I start and stop NetAlertX services in a devcontainer?

Start NetAlertX services using internal scripts in /services: run start-backend.sh, start-php-fpm.sh, start-nginx.sh, and start-crond.sh sequentially from within the container. Stop services by terminating their processes. This Skill orchestrates these operations without requiring docker exec or external software.

Can I restart nginx and php-fpm without stopping the entire devcontainer?

Yes. This Skill lets you restart individual services—nginx, php-fpm, backend, and cron—on demand from inside the container. Each service has its own start script under /services, allowing selective restarts without container interruption.

How do I check which NetAlertX services are currently running?

Monitor running services using pgrep to check for active processes. This Skill provides status verification commands to quickly identify which backend, frontend, nginx, php-fpm, and cron services are active inside the devcontainer.

What's the safest way to manage multiple services inside a devcontainer?

Use script-driven orchestration from within the container rather than docker exec commands. This Skill relies on internal /services scripts to start, stop, restart, and monitor all NetAlertX services, reducing risk to the host environment while keeping operations unified and repeatable.

Do I need additional tools to control devcontainer services beyond what's in the container?

No external software is required. This Skill operates entirely within the devcontainer environment, using built-in scripts and standard process management commands like pgrep to orchestrate backend, frontend, nginx, php-fpm, and cron services.
