ly doctor

Check that this host can build and run Lampyr Services.

Terminal window
build/ly doctor

It reports the Lampyr runtime payload it would use and each prerequisite:

  • ly: the running CLI version.
  • build: the source commit embedded at build time and whether that build used a clean or dirty tracked worktree. Builds made outside the Lampyr Git checkout report the commit and state as unknown.
  • application: when run in a service directory, validates the manifest and reports its application model and effective command. A standalone server is not started or hook-checked.
  • platform: a repository checkout containing the current directory, or a payload installed under LAMPYR_HOME by ly setup.
  • docker and kubectl on PATH.
  • On Linux, read/write access to /dev/kvm. If the device exists but is unusable, join the group that owns it, or restore its group with sudo chgrp kvm /dev/kvm if a Kind cluster changed it.

ly doctor exits non-zero when a prerequisite is missing or a local service manifest is invalid. It checks only this host; see ly cluster health for a cluster.
