NAME


plainbox-startprovider - create a new plainbox provider

SYNOPSIS


plainbox startprovider [-h] [--empty] name

DESCRIPTION


Creates a new provider from a built-in skeleton.

The name of the provider must follow the pattern ``YYYY.example.org:name`` where ``YYYY``
is a four-digit year when the author of the provider owned the domain (here,
``example.org``) and ``name`` is arbitrary identifier that is managed by the owner of that
domain. The identifier should be constrained to ASCII, digits and the dash character.

This naming scheme allows anyone that ever owned a domain name to come up with
non-clashing provider identifiers. Those identifiers are going to be used in fully
qualified names of various objects.

This command creates a new skeleton test provider for PlainBox. The generated content
should be edited to fit a particular purpose.

OPTIONS


Positional arguments:

provider name, eg: YYYY.example.org:some-name

Optional arguments:

--empty
create an empty provider

ABOUT NAMING PROVIDERS


Plainbox tries to be intuitive where possible but provider names keep causing issues and
make people struggle with coming up with correct and good names. See
plainbox-provider-names for a detailed discussion of provider names.
