flox services restart command

NAME

flox-services-restart - restart running services

SYNOPSIS

flox [<general-options>] services restart
     [ -d=<path> ]
     [<name>] ...

DESCRIPTION

Restarts the specified services.

If no services are specified, stops all running services and starts new services using the latest build of the environment. If one or more services are running, then the specified services are started using the service config that the running services were started with.

If one or more services are running, the specified services will be started using the service config that the running services were started with.

When all services are restarted, they are started from an ephemeral activation that uses the latest build of the environment. This may not be the build of the environment that your shell has activated, so the environment variables present for services may be different from the ones in your shell. To ensure that your shell and the services have the same environment, reactivate your environment after making edits to the manifest.

An error is displayed if the specified service does not exist.
