A module to create Sihl apps.

type t

An app is a thin convenience layer on top of the service container. It provides hooks that are executed at different stages in the app lifecycle.

val empty : t

empty returns an app without any services.

val with_services : Container.Service.t list -> t -> t

with_services services app adds services to an app.

val before_start : (unit -> unit Lwt.t) -> t -> t

before_start f app registers a callback f with app. The callback is executed before any service is started. This means you must not use any services here!

val after_stop : (unit -> unit Lwt.t) -> t -> t

after_stop f app registers a callback f with app. The callback is executed before after services are stopped. This means you must not use any services here!

val run : ?commands:Command.t list -> ?log_reporter:(unit -> Logs.reporter) -> ?args:string list -> t -> unit

run ?commands ?log_reporter app is the main entry point to a Sihl app and starts the command line interface with commands merged with the commands provided by services.

An optional log_reporter can be provided to change the logging behavior. The default log reporter logs to stdout.

val run' : ?commands:Command.t list -> ?log_reporter:(unit -> Logs.reporter) -> ?args:string list -> t -> unit Lwt.t

run' ?commands ?log_reporter app is analogous to run. It is a helper to be used in tests that need Lwt.t.
