caddy-start - Starts the Caddy process in the background and then returns
Contents
Description
Starts the Caddy process, optionally bootstrapped with an initial config file. This command unblocks
after the server starts running or fails to run.
If --envfile is specified, an environment file with environment variables in the KEY=VALUE format will be
loaded into the Caddy process.
On Windows, the spawned child process will remain attached to the terminal, so closing the window will
forcefully stop Caddy; to avoid forgetting this, try using 'caddy run' instead to keep it in the
foreground.
