Command line

You can use these APIs directly from the command-line using the vaurienctl cli tool.

With it, you can either list the available handlers, get the current one or set the handler to another one. Here is a quick demo:

$ vaurienctl list-handlers
delay, error, hang, blackout, dummy
$ vaurienctl set-handler blackout
Handler changed to "blackout"
$ vaurienctl get-handler
blackout
