Systemd service script

[shaharmor]

Hey, can you guys create an official systemd service script?

bump?

Here is a simple one that works for me on ubuntu 18.04. I installed logdna in /opt.

[Unit]
# /etc/systemd/system/logdna.service
# systemctl daemon-reload
# service logdna start
# service logdna stop
Description=LogDNA (remote logging) service
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
WorkingDirectory=/opt/logdna-agent
PIDFile=/var/run/logdna.pid
ExecStart=/usr/bin/node index.js

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

I modified the code @rotten shared, to work (and tested on) on fedora 33 from a standard install.

[Unit]
# /etc/systemd/system/logdna-agent.service
Description=LogDNA (remote logging) service
Requires=network.target
After=syslog.target network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
PIDFile=/var/run/logdna.pid
ExecStart=/usr/bin/logdna-agent start
ExecStop=/usr/bin/logdna-agent stop

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

The installer should install a systemd service script instead of a SysV-style init script, and should include:

[Service]
Restart=on-failure

I had the agent crash and nothing restarted it. systemd can take care of that for us.
