allow user to specify how long to wait for tingle reboot

[go8ose]

Rather than forcing a wait of ten minutes to reboot, this change means you can specify how long to wait when you call tingle. For example for a 2 minute wait for reboot, you would call:
tingle reboot 2

It's the icing on the cake I need to use tingle in my environment.

I agree: the fixed ten-minute delay should be substituted with a tweakable value.

I'm not taken by the idea of introducing an additional optional argument to the user interface just for this case. All variable configuration policy that might affect a tingle run should be nailed down somewhere durable before the trigger is pulled with tingle ACTION.

Geoff, would a variable in a configuration file work for you? e.g.:

# /etc/tingle/tingle.conf

REBOOT_DELAY=2

Yes, that would work for me.
