Run in Background on Windows

[niceman20k]

Hi there,

is there any way to run the working program in background on Windows? I tried with piping & redirecting to NUL but without success. It keeps having the prompt open.
Might be a simple edit in the source so it won't output to stdout, but i am not into Go. But i can compile it on my own, if anyone has a hint, i would be thankful.

Hi @niceman20k. There are multiple ways to turn any Windows executable into a service. A quick search provides several options but perhaps the easiest is to NSSM.

Thank you! This does the trick very well (nssm). Searched of course, installed a service myself, but didn't step over nssm.

Glad it's working for you.
