deploy@host:~$ cat /etc/init/example_phoenix.conf
description "example_phoenix"

setuid deploy
setgid deploy

start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [016]

expect stop
respawn

env HOME=/home/deploy/example_phoenix
export HOME

pre-start exec /bin/sh /home/deploy/example_phoenix/bin/example_phoenix start
post-stop exec /bin/sh /home/deploy/example_phoenix/bin/example_phoenix stop

• Systemd (Ubuntu)
