[Xubuntu] Automatic start-up Go applications and Nginx

#ubuntu

Intro

This time, I will try automatic starting-up my Go application and Nginx.

I built my Go application by "go build .".

To start-up automatically, I will add systemd service files.

Go applications

I add a service file into "/etc/systemd/system/".

webappsample.service 

[Service] Type=simple User=root ExecStart=/home/example/go/src/sample/webappsample/webappsample WorkingDirectory=/home/example/go/src/sample/webappsample Restart=always RestartSec=30 [Install] WantedBy = multi-user.target
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

After adding the file, I register it with systemd.

sudo systemctl enable webappsample.service
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Nginx

Nginx service files are almost identical to Go application.

nginx.service 

[Unit] Description=The NGINX HTTP and reverse proxy server After=syslog.target network-online.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target Wants=network-online.target [Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/run/nginx.pid ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/nginx -t ExecStart=/usr/sbin/nginx ExecReload=/usr/sbin/nginx -s reload ExecStop=/bin/kill -s QUIT $MAINPID PrivateTmp=true [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
