Wrapper to manage server on Linux

[freezurbern]

It'd be great to have a script (sh perhaps?) in the repo to allow for something like this:
re-manage {start|stop|restart|status} as well as to make sure the server stays online (might have to deal with a pid file?), with logging too.

I actually wrote a sh script that works exactly like that in the past while hosting the now defunct Wazu servers. I may have it floating around somewhere, so if I find it I'll refactor it as needed and throw it up here.

I'm planning to put this in the main repo at some point, with proper PID tracking (for multiple servers on one machine).

Should not be used as-is, I have yet to refactor it https://gist.github.com/ZeroKnight/374d7e5f2c08d9b9c247

This sounds like a hackish solution. I would rather add a proper systemd/upstart/sysvinit configuration (nowadays, systemd is probably enough though).
I have a working and well-tested systemd configuration in use at the moment, I will add this to this repository with a few words on how to use it.

Another solution is using Docker: https://github.com/TheAssassin/redeclipse-docker
