Rails Service Tasks

Make it easy to install and run your rails app as linux service.

Supported platforms:

• systemd (Ubuntu)

Integrate into your rails app

• Copy the files inside of lib/tasks/* into the folder lib/tasks of your rails project.

• Then apply your custom settings in its rails_service_tasks_config.yml.

• After that include (copy) the dependencies of Gemfile within the Gemfile of your rails project. (colorize)

That's it! Integration in your rails app is done!

Otherwise you will have to restart your app manually after reboot.
