Electrs: RPC call to gracefully stop electrs

[reynico]

Hi, is there any RPC call to gracefully stop electrs instead of killing the process?

If you send SIGINT or SIGTERM to electrs, it should exit gracefully:

2019-07-17T12:29:29.795+03:00 - INFO - Electrum RPC server running on 127.0.0.1:50001 (protocol 1.4)
^C2019-07-17T12:29:32.440+03:00 - INFO - stopping server: Interrupted by signal 2

I can add an additional "shutdown" RPC, but note that it's not part of the Electrum protocol:

Note that electrs doesn't appear to respond to SIGINT or SIGTERM if it's in the initial sync process.

Thanks @romanz ! I'll close this issue.
