Proposed changes
Run
tedge init
using root user to setup the service before starting the main process. This allows folders to be created on startup rather than during installation time (see linked ticket for further details).Notes
+
is only used on services where the main process is run under a non-root user, e.g.tedge
- see systemd.service docs-
is used when running thetedge init
so that any initialization failure does not block attempting to start the main process (to avoid errors in non critical actions run intedge init
from blocking the starting of the main process)Types of changes
