Debugging Shepherd Daemon. Possible escape char issue.

[Jesse Millwood]

Hello,

I am trying to run some docker services as an oci-service-configuration 
entry.

I have one simple one running fine. However the one that I am having 
trouble with, I assume is an issue with quoting and escaping. I don't 
see any issue in /var/log/messages. I'd like to be able to see the 
actual command that Shepherd is trying to run. Is there a way to do that?

The Shepherd service I am trying to run is this:


(service oci-container-service-type
  (list
   (oci-container-configuration
    (image "traefik/whoami")
    (network "traefik-network")
    (extra-arguments
     '("--label"
"traefik.http.routers.whoami.rule=Host\(\\\"whoami.geekslab\\\")"))
    (log-file "/var/docker.whoami.log")
   )
))

The only feedback I get is this:

admin@geekslab ~/geekslab/scripts$ sudo herd status docker-whoami
Status of docker-whoami:
 It is stopped.
 It is enabled.
 Provides (docker-whoami).
 Requires (dockerd user-processes).
 Will not be respawned.

admin@geekslab ~/geekslab/scripts$ sudo herd start docker-whoami
 Service user-homes has been started.
 Service dockerd depends on elogind.
 Service docker-whoami depends on dockerd.
 herd: error: failed to start service docker-whoami

As stated before, nothing in /var/log/messages. I'm not sure where else 
to look. I feel like I'm missing something when trying to debug Shepherd 
services. I've also tried a lot of different combinations of escapes and 
such.

If I run the following from the shell though, it works fine:

sudo docker run --rm --name whoami --label 
"traefik.http.routers.whoami.rule=Host(\"whoami.geekslab\")" traefik/whoami

Notice the escaped quotes that need to be passed through. I am 
essentially trying to daemonize this docker run command.

Any Shepherd pointers here would be appreciated!
