Previously when installing redis through brew install redis a service would get created that would run the redis server in the background. Is it possible to add that functionality to this new cask that runs redis-stack-server? Ex:
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/redis.rb#L41-L47

Thanks for this sweet cask!

@npezza93 thanks for the feedback, and the feature suggestion!

The last time I looked at this, we couldn't create a service because we make use of brew Casks. However, I'm leaving this open - because it's on the roadmap, and something I really want to solve! If you have ideas, or a PR I'd love the help!

OOC why is redis-stack using a cask instead of Formula? It seems like casks are for GUI app installs (from .dmg files), so the cask makes sense to package RedisInsights but is problematic for redis-stack-server with respect to being a service.

More than a year later it would be great to get an answer to the question in the above message.
