.NET systemd Service Template

Installing systemd services can be a hassle. Why not let services install themselves?

This is essentially the .NET 6 dotnet new worker template with systemd enabled and a new install command added.

Get Started

1. Build this for Linux however you like. I like: dotnet publish --configuration Release --runtime linux-x64 --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true --output publish/
2. Copy the executable over to Linux. ex: multipass transfer .\publish\SystemdTemplate latest:bin/SystemdTemplate
3. Install with the install command: sudo SystemdTemplate install

To Do

• Add uninstall command
• Consider making this a "real" template (GitHub template repo? dotnet add template?)
