Running two instances of `yesod devel` at the same time with different ports?

[Yifan Yu]

Hi,

Previously I could run two instances of `yesod devel` at the same time by setting different ports with "-p". However, after HTTPS was added to `yesod devel`, it seems that there is no command line option to modify the default 3443 port for HTTPS. So when I run the second instance of `yesod devel`, it exits with “bind: resource busy (Address already in use)”. Is there a way to workaround this?

Thanks,

Yifan

The --tls-port or -q options should work for this:

-q,--tls-port N          Devel server listening port (tls)

It works like a charm! Thank you.

Is it possible to get a list of options for yesod commands? `yesod devel --help` only gives the info for the `yesod` command itself.

It seems to work for me:

$ yesod devel --help

Usage: yesod devel [-d|--disable-api] [-s|--success-hook COMMAND]

                   [-f|--failure-hook COMMAND] [-t|--event-timeout N]

                   [-b|--builddir ARG] [-i|--ignore DIR]

                   [-e|--extra-cabal-arg ARG] [-p|--port N] [-q|--tls-port N]

                   [-x|--proxy-timeout N] [-n|--disable-reverse-proxy]

                   [-c|--interrupt-only]

  Run project with the devel server

Available options:

  -d,--disable-api         Disable fast GHC API rebuilding

  -s,--success-hook COMMAND

                           Run COMMAND after rebuild succeeds

  -f,--failure-hook COMMAND

                           Run COMMAND when rebuild fails

  -t,--event-timeout N     Force rescan of files every N seconds (default 10,

                           use -1 to rely on FSNotify alone)

  -b,--builddir ARG        Set custom cabal build directory, default `dist'

  -i,--ignore DIR          ignore file changes in DIR

  -e,--extra-cabal-arg ARG pass extra argument ARG to cabal

  -p,--port N              Devel server listening port

  -q,--tls-port N          Devel server listening port (tls)

  -x,--proxy-timeout N     Devel server timeout before returning 'not ready'

                           message (in seconds, 0 for none)

  -n,--disable-reverse-proxy

                           Disable reverse proxy

  -c,--interrupt-only      Disable exiting when enter is pressed

This is what I got:

root@localhost:~/stack/iped# stack exec -- yesod version

yesod-bin version: 1.4.18.1

root@localhost:~/stack/iped# stack exec -- yesod devel --help

Yesod Web Framework command line utility

Usage: yesod [-d|--dev] [-v|--verbose] COMMAND

Available options:

  -h,--help                Show this help text

  -d,--dev                 use cabal-dev

  -v,--verbose             More verbose output

Available commands:

  init                     Command no longer available, please use 'stack new'

  hsfiles                  Create a hsfiles file for the current folder

  configure                Configure a project for building

  build                    Build project (performs TH dependency analysis)

  touch                    Touch any files with altered TH dependencies but do

                           not build

  devel                    Run project with the devel server

  test                     Build and run the integration tests

  add-handler              Add a new handler and module to the project.

  version                  Print the version of Yesod

I tried on version 1.4.14 and it works correctly.

This appears to be a regression in optparse-applicative, as I was able to bisect this change in behavior to:

commit e7c6d06d3dca7710b6bad2caa074162170b82a78

Author: Michael Snoyman <mic...@snoyman.com>

Date:   Sun Mar 13 08:26:31 2016 +0200

    Newer LTS release

Which involved no code change within yesod-bin.

I've just pushed a commit to master which seems to fix this. Once Travis gives the green light, I can release it to Hackage.
