How to make Systemd a daemon application
What I wanted to do
I was deploy Python app to AWS EC2. and I wanted to make my app turn it into a daemon and restart it automatically if it falls.
Directory location
$ cd /etc/systemd/system
$ vi app.service
Code
[Unit]
Description=App
[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/bash -c '/usr/bin/python3 /home/ubuntu/APP/app.py'
WorkingDirectory=/home/ubuntu/APP/
Restart=always
Type=simple
User=ubuntu
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Point
Here, even if the process goes down, it will restart automatically
Restart=always
Execution
$ sudo systemctl list-unit-files --type=service | grep app
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl start app.service
$ sudo systemctl status app.service
Was about difficult
If it doesn’t work with permission issue, You can use something like sudo chmod 777
