cmd service

nself service

Moved to nself config services in v1.5.0, removed in v1.6.0. The old spelling keeps working until then.

See cmd-config for the current command. Command-Canon lists every move.

Enable, disable, and list optional ɳSelf services.

Description

nself service manages the optional services in your ɳSelf stack. The four core services (PostgreSQL, Hasura, Auth, Nginx) are always included. The six optional services, Redis, MinIO, Email, Functions, Search, and Admin, are controlled through this command.

Enabling or disabling a service writes to your .env file. After changing service state, run nself build to regenerate docker-compose.yml with the updated service set, then nself restart to apply the changes.

MLflow is no longer an optional service. Use nself plugin install mlflow instead.
