Run liquidsoap as daemon!
This script configures your system to run your liquidsoap script, automatically and in the background. It currently supports the following init systems:
Systemd(modern Linux; Debian 8 or later, Ubuntu 15.04 or later, recent versions of Fedora, Arch Linux, etc)Initd(older Linux; Debian before 8, Ubuntu before 15.04)Launchd(MacOS)
To use the script:
- Place the script to run as daemon at
<user home>/liquidsoap-daemon/main.liq - Run
daemonize-liquidsoap.shwith the same user
That's it!
By default, the script installs a Systemd service. If you want to install files for another system, you can do:
init_type=<init system> ./daemonize-liquidsoap.sh
Valid modes are currently: systemd (default), initd, launchd.
You can also remove the files installed by the script by running:
mode=remove [init_system=<init system>] ./daemonize-liquidsoap.sh
To run this script, you will need the sudo command. On Debian and Ubuntu, run:
apt install sudo
And configure as needed.
To install the initd scripts on older Debian systems (before 8), you will need the update-rc.d command. On Debian, run:
apt-get install init-system-helpers
For initd scripts on Ubuntu (before 15.04), you need to install:
apt-get install sysv-rc
