The ffx repository server commands can identify and stop
Fuchsia package servers on the host machine.
Concepts
The package repository server is controlled by running the subcommands of
ffx repository server. This server handles requests for
metadata about the available packages and delivers the file blobs that make
up the package contents.
There can be multiple package servers running on a single host machine. It is useful to be able to stop one or all of these running servers.
There are two ways to stop running package servers on a host machine. You can stop running a specific server by specifying the name, or stop all running package servers with --all.
Basic command
ffx repository server stop
Options
The options to ffx repository server stop specify which server instances are
stopped.
No options - Running with no options will stop the running package server if there is only one running server. Otherwise, an error is returned.
Positional arguments - Specific servers are stopped by specifying their name on the command line as positional arguments. Only servers that have matching names are stopped.
--alloption - This option stops all running servers.
Examples
Stop the one running server
ffx repository server stop
Stop a specific server
Stop the server named workstation_bundle:

Stop all servers
ffx repository server stop --all
