supervisord: Run supervisord in the foreground.
$ supervisord -n
try on your machine

The command "supervisord -n" starts the Supervisor daemon in the foreground.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "supervisord": This is the command to start the Supervisor daemon.
  • "-n": This option stands for "nodaemon" and instructs Supervisor to run in the foreground rather than as a background daemon. In other words, it prevents the process from detaching from the terminal and running in the background.

Running Supervisor in the foreground with the "-n" option is useful for debugging or troubleshooting purposes, as it allows you to see the log output directly in the terminal. Normally, Supervisor runs as a background process, managing and monitoring other processes defined in its configuration file.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
